So for the longest time i’ve wanted to lose weight because it messes up my mental health as well as my physical. Every once in a while I would lay in bed, look at my body and go like ”damn, I gotta lose weight” and then before I went to sleep I set up a diet, work out schedule and everything then first thing in the morning I would work out and then stick to my diet. This would usually keep going for a month or two and then for some reason I would just stop. Most of you have probably been in the same exact position. Last time this happened was in March, and I went super hard for about 1-2 months until corona made it so I didn’t feel safe heading to the gym.
But now for the last month or so I have been taking it kind of easy and just try to think about what I eat, I count calories, drink a lot of water and most importantly i’m just living life. Instead of solely focusing on losing weight, i’m focusing on life first and putting weight loss second. I work out pretty regularly by going for runs or doing the occasional pushups/situps etc. I also try to keep an active lifestyle and avoid being a couch potato, even though I like playing video games a lot and going for long car rides at night I make sure to still get a little active. For example when I start losing while gaming I usually head out for a quick walk to cool off, or when i’m driving around I might stop at a park just to enjoy nature. All these little things combined has made this weight loss journey much easier.
I still like to snack and I dont even try to go for healthy snacks, I just make sure I don’t snack a lot. I eat two-thee meals a day and then once a week I might get a can of pringles and some diet soda.
For once in my life I can just enjoy myself and still know i’m making progress and I absolutely love it, just wanted to share this incase it might help someone else on their journey!
