Yep, you read that right. I am not going to put any photos in this blog today. I just thought that I would give a little update about my well being. I am feeling pretty proud of my self really. After 2020 and all of that weirdness, and my constant walk/runs, slight change to my diet, yoga and meditation, I am happy to say that I have lost about 35 pounds over the past year. I know that 35 lbs in a year may not be much, but I made a promise to myself that I would do my damnedest to get back into shape, and while I was going to the gym for almost two years, I really didn't see any change at all. So when Covid shut down everything, I really took it on myself to do what I could...and over the past year I have been able to shed off those 35 pounds, go down about almost 8 pant sizes, and almost two shirt sizes.
I really could not be happier with myself. I know that the weight will go down more since I have built up a lot of muscle in my body, and while fat and muscle does weigh the same, fat takes up a lot more space on the body than muscle, so as I have been slimming down, I have also been toning up...so a lot has happened over the past year. My legs and arms are a lot better and more defined, and if I wasn't building up muscle in the process, I most likely would have lost a lot more pounds on the scale. But you know what, I am looking better to myself in the mirror, and try to stay off the scales and just let my clothes do the talking (like the fact that a pair of 32 inch waist shorts that I need a belt with now).
Just wanted to do a proud moment blog with everyone. Thanks and have a great rest of your week.
