I am thrilled to report that I have finally hit a major milestone: having lost over two hundred pounds. It has been a long road, and I still have so much more territory to cover, but there’s a lot to celebrate here. I’m very happy to be much more mobile and capable. So many things that were out of reach not that long ago are things I’m doing regularly. Walking is no longer a chore and is something I do for fun!
I’ve come quite a long way since my first post. Even just since January, I’m down over 100lbs. What I’ve noticed the most is the fitness progress. I’m able to do so much more without being tired and various exercises are progressing well. It has been so exciting to learn to do so many new things and slowly make progress towards more ambitious goals. I’m still not able to complete a push-up, but my modified push-ups are getting better over time.
I’ve got a lot of work to do, but I’m constantly finding more and more to look forward to. Many of the anxieties and fears are beginning to gradually fade as I’m feeling more confident as a whole. There are still many difficult problems to tackle in the future, but I feel more equipped than ever to tackle them. Learning to regain control over myself has changed not only my weight, but also my outlook and approaches to problems.
Interesting finds
My webring neighbor Jacob W Smith has been putting out great posts on fitness & Health. I especially like that you can learn a lot from reading the details from his cook book recipes, the peanut butter one was very illuminating for me.
