Sporadic posting about health and what not.
So a few months ago I posted saying that I had started a new exercise routine following the 1 Million Kilo Challenge.
I can safely say that I gave up around the 5th week.
I think the thing I had most trouble with was the exercise. I loved the way the videos were sent to everyone and were easy to follow, but before that I had only done about 45 minutes of cardio once every two or three days. This made it rather a culture shock to me, and I wasn’t expecting to be killed every time I completed the exercises.
Looking back now, I loved the feeling I got when I finished a work out routine, making me realise I had actually done something worthwhile for my body.
I slowly started losing time to exercise, and then I started back my final year of uni. I started concentrating more on my work, and only managed a few 20 minute walks maybe once a week. I’m still trying to increase my exercise throughout the week, seeing as I have seriously lost motivation to do anything other than walk.
I dropped off a bit with counting the calories I ate, telling myself I was comfortable with where I was and what I had lost, and then started to snack on unhealthy foods. That will always be my weakness, forever snacking.
I stepped on the scales Monday and saw that I had put on 2 and a half kilos, and almost decided to just brush it off as ‘Oh, well it’s winter soon so it won’t matter.’ It doesn’t sound like much, but I can tell if I don’t start back up again, I’ll keep adding until I’ve gained back what I’ve lost.
So this week I have started rigorously counting my calories again, and have resolved to go walking more, and play a few games of basketball with Travis.
It’s not necessarily about losing or gaining weight, I also know I used to be extremely unhealthy with what I ate. I have still remembered what are the right foods to eat, lots of fruit and vegetables, but just overindulged a little too much.
Just need to stop the snacking.
I wrote more but I spent too much time trying to make this a read more post, but I don’t know how.
TL;DR: I dunno, I’m pretty good about my health n’ stuff, and it’s gonna get better.
Got bored and put on blue lipstick, now I’m gonna wear it to pick Travis up (Taken with instagram)
Ps, it’s a lot brighter in real life :P
