This morning, after about a two week hiatus, I reacquainted myself with our treadmill. This decision to take a break was never permanent, but I rather wanted to focus my attention on my eating habits, as I felt that was the constant thing holding me back from continuing to make progress in my weight loss journey. So, for the last two weeks or so, I have been completely focused on my eating, counting calories obsessively (with the help of My Fitness Pal), and have experienced good progress on that front, seeing some pounds drop off just from that effort.
Now, I try to amp it up, add some designated calorie burning activity to my day, and keep my focus to limit what I eat. My 30th birthday is 2 weeks away, and I have a symbolic weight in my mind that I would like to reach...so I can say as I enter my thirties I will never have a weight above this again. So, refocusing, and rebooting myself for an intense couple weeks to make that goal, and continue onward from there.
Keep with it old buddy. It's not an easy journey (I'm on it myself at the moment), but one that is worth the struggle and sacrifice.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouragement. I know its worth it, just based on the progress already made. But, as I am sure you are aware, it is a long road. I wish you luck on your journey as well, along with the necessary perseverance.
