I am at that place and because I have never been on a weight loss and better health journey before, I don't know what to do now that I'm here. Do I continue doing what I do and only hope? Do I have to start looking at more of the internal healing that I have been doing to see the external results?
I have switched up my activity - I am running three times a week in training for my first 5K race in five weeks. I am doing mini cardio sessions, and have cut back on my strength training now focussing on three to four sessions of total body workouts. AND I am now taking one rest day a week. So, body moving, as it were, I have changed things up.
My fuel - probably a good idea I start to track. I absolutely suck at this. I am focussed for one or two days then figure I know what I'm putting in my mouth. I will commit for the next week to track EVERYTHING and see if that scale budges.
The scale - speaking of... I actually only weigh in about once every other week. That's why I am feeling stuck now as I just stepped on and I am a pound and a half down so while I was feeling stuck before, I know have empirical proof why I feel stuck.
This then leaves me to the internal work that I was doing and have since stopped. Forgiving (constantly) myself for getting to where I was, forgetting the life I had and knowing I deserve the life I have, looking at my relationships I have and really asking if they are serving good or not in my world.
The mental and emotional work is so critical in measuring your self-success and happiness.
As I read today - change doesn't happen without changing things in your life.
