Day 129 and still going strong. My journey has been tested this year but I am still on top. The Fast food and Pizza challenge is also going well day 22 of 30. This weekend was a good weekend for me. I had a great business meeting for my invention and I resisted the temptation to drink while watching The Pacman beat up on Shane Mosley in a boxing match. Usually those events are accompanied by lots food, drinks, and good times. I simply had good times. It was an all around positive weekend.
Now to get to my weight... I am at 211. I'm not sure how I feel about that number. My first reaction when getting on the scale this morning was wow I am not making any real progress with my weight loss goal. My second thought was that I feel stronger than I have felt and I generally feel great right now. I know that the amount of food I am eating is directly affecting my weight status right now. I just eat too much. I don’t eat bad foods but I am just eating too much. I'm not sure how to deal with that. Everything about my life right now feels stronger and healthier so why do I feel down on myself about the amount of food I eat and my inability to get my weight back down into the 190's…? I'm not sure how to answer that right now. Maybe it will come to me in one of my workout sessions MONDAY WEDNESDAY FRIDAY!!!
ONWARD!
I'm in the middle right now of writing a post about peace and trust and I think it goes with what you are saying. I say if we are living our lives and feeling healthy and doing well that is what should matter, not a number on the scale. You don't have high blood pressure or diabetes or any other type of illness so really a few extra lbs on your body isn't going to hurt you if you are eating well and exercising. I find that when I'm having peace in my life my weight just naturally drifts down so I say just continue doing what you're doing and the weight will come off with time. Glad you had a good meeting about your invention I was wondering how things were going. Hope you're having a good Monday.

ReplyDeleteThank you for taking the time to write this. I know exactly what you are trying to say and I need to come to some comfort with the weight and find some peace.
In my mind, the best way to lose weight healthily is fitness. Together with healthy foods it will keep you in good shape and mood. In this blog http://bit.ly/Qh9G8S I have found lots of useful material about exercising, diet planning, weight loss and muscle building. One of the most recent articles there is dedicated to the prevention of DOMS. Excellent info for everyone, who wants to keep fit!
