The 5 things you must maintain.

So I’ve posted here before. Started weight loss journey August 2019, quit weight loss journey March 2020, tried to restart weight loss journey September 2020, and now it’s January 2021.

I’ve been told that I’m the sort of person who can sustain 5 things in my life and if I want to start something new, one of those 5 things will have to make way. Might sound like a harsh assessment, but it’s true. I have obligations to my mental health, my family health, my physical health, my home-life health, and my marital health. Starting last March, my job health became an issue and my physical health took a hit.

Here’s the thing though, all other parts of my list of 5 go much easier if I take care of my physical health. But you know what of those 5 things takes the most time to properly maintain? Also my physical health. Physical health includes eating right and physical activity. It is an important thing I shouldn’t let suffer but it is by far the easiest to convince myself to ignore simply due to the effort involved.

So I’ve been at a low of 185 lbs but currently at 205. I had a very rough day when I had to go back up a pants size again.

Anyway, work isn’t completely steady for me right now, but it has reached a point I think where it can kind of maintain itself for the time being. So my week’s food log has been planned with a step-down method on my biggest nemesis: sugar. By week’s end, I hope to be back to using a teaspoon of sugar in my coffee versus a tablespoon and eating my almond butter chocolate cups instead of the 700 calorie brownies I made this morning.

So hopefully I’ll be here Saturday to celebrate success.
