My journey from fat to fit! |
|
I’ve been trying to lose fat and get fit for a long time. This will be my blog about my fitness journey! When a lot of people go from extremely fat to healthy and fit, they usually leave a lot out of their story. For instance, in online articles someone might have one paragraph describing when they were 300 pounds and sneaking fast food on their way home before eating a regular dinner with their family, then in the next paragraph they’re out running 5K’s and 10K’s. I want to show the fitness journey from beginning to end, with a lot of details and the philosophical outlook I’ve come up with on my own to guide me on my fitness journey. Hopefully, my experience can help others. |
| I had a strong craving for cheese and pizza on Sunday. It got to the point where I was planning out how to make home made pizza with cheddar cheese I planned on buying from Costco. I made spaghetti instead, with about 12 ounces of ground turkey, and the cravings went away. If I gave into every craving, I would never lose weight. I’ve got to try to work these things out somehow. I believe that if I went whole hog and stayed completely away from all bad foods, I would eventually binge and regain the weight. My plan is to buy a package of small pieces of cheese and have one a day, to alleviate cravings. There are two ends of a spectrum, eating too many junk foods and staying completely away from them. There has to be a happy medium. I woke up 2.2 pounds heavier on Monday compared to my record low on Saturday, so I need to try to get back on track. Update: I went shopping and bought a package of rectangles of Tillamook mild cheddar cheese at Costco, and overdid it with them for several days. On Thursday, I finally cut down to having two with dinner, so I made progress. My weight was 276 pounds on Thursday morning, and Friday morning I got down to 275.6 pounds. |

has oddly set off a motivating dopamine reaction that gets me going. Weights I can do at the house when I wake up or before bed. I'd like to be able to walk more, but my schedule is not that wide open where I can walk consistently. Right now I'm fighting a touch of a cold that's settled in my throat/sinus area so weights are good for me now. I'm also tracking on Weight Watchers since I started last DEC. While, I'm happy with my tracking habits, I do need to focus on more zero or 1 point foods. I agree - getting in shape is 90% diet. Sending you good vibes for meeting your goals.
