So It's been a coon's age since I've posted anything. Lots of things got in the way, Holidays, The sinus grossness that was going around and took almost a month to get over and just life in general... Ya'll know.
Anyway... Even without really marking all of the progress. I have made a few positive steps and the scale has finally, finally ... FINALLY MOVED!!
I have been dipping and rising between 280-277 for the majority of the last few months and I weighted this morning and it was a miracle! At last a number I HAVEN'T SEEN BEFORE!
I've been working on being more intentional with my intermittent fasting. It's a bit of a new venture for me. I've always been a 3 meal a day + a few snacks kind of person. Now, I'm coming around that that's not always the best way to eat. Especially, if you aren't really burning it off... either with a physical job or some serious gym time.
Since I have neither... fewer calls and in better portions are starting to show... Hot Dog!
I struggle with going to the gym... I struggle with self-image ( yes I know it's for me and not everyone else... blah blah blah)
If you've had a terrible experience then you know how hard it is.. even if it's just going to Planet Fitness.
And lets face another truth... At home work out videos just collect dust.
There's always a distraction... a reason... a phone call... laundry you'd rather do than feel like and idiot in your own home sweating to the oldies...
Oh, the crap my mind puts me through.
I know I have some serious habits I need to change if I'm going to make this really successful. Concurring my issues with working out is on top.
Finally, feeling like I have at least some of my diet in order has helped much more that I thought it would. Seeing that scale finally move is a motivator too.
Anywho, Thanks for letting me vent... I don't just yet know what I'm going to do about the whole working out problem yet.
Suck it up and do it is about my only option...yay. :/

Welcome back. I think one step at a time is good. Trying to right everything at once is just too much. At least it is for me LOL. I think it is great to start with the food since we do know that it is the most important area to get a handle with. Good luck!!!!

Don't worry about "working out," as such. Just INCREASE your activity level. Start wiwth baby steps. When I was at my higher weights (up to 302), ANYTHING was a workout - taking a shower made me break out in a sweat (SO MUCH body to surface to wash, dry, powder, etc!) Park a couple cars farther away than you usually would; then park even farther the next time. Walk FASTER when you do your grocery shopping. When you're standing still to read labels or put stuff in your cart, keep your legs marching in place. If you watch TV, don't fast forward through the commercials - do some household chore while they play. The little things will add up, and then you'll be able to add bigger and bigger things (like CARTWHEELS on commercials!!!)
