20lbs down, finally out of the 300's

I just weighed in at 299lbs this morning.

I'm finally about to surpass my precovid weight, 297lbs. Going to the gym since June has been easy for me, but walking for an hour has been hard for me.

I was getting upset and annoyed by my constant need for a bio break 5 minutes into my walk, 20 minutes in, etc. After doing some reading, it dawned on me that I can control my mind, but not my body. Giving myself extra time to hit my 1hr goal was what I needed, not feeling frustrated.

I also did a body scan and saw that my amount of muscle hadn't gone up since 3 months ago. Chasing the pump, stalling, and doing random machines were holding me back from getting to a more appropriate weight.

I also started creating a community at the gym. One of my "disciples" started taking my weight loss advice and the thought of him losing more weight than me from my own advice sparked something inside of me.

Dropping 20lbs is a great feeling, my joints feel so much better. My next goal is 279. 265 keeps floating around in my head because it's the UFC heavyweight limit.
