I've been at this for a bit over 3 months now, after a pretty bad break up. I had turned to food to manage my feelings and I was doing it a lot even during the relationship as it was dying out. In this journey I've learned a couple of things.
-
I don't have as much cushion on my ass anymore, and my posture had been so bad that now I actually have to sit differently or it'll hurt.
-
The reason why my posture was so bad and why I was putting so much junk in my body was the same - I was unhappy and had given up on myself.
-
I actually like what I eat now. Back then I used to eat everything on my plate even the chips or the spoonfuls of extra rice. Now I only eat the food that I really want and that's maximized my enjoyment over all.
-
I'm more toned than I thought i'd be. My regimen is most CICO but I also factored in exercise at the gym (with the help of the Lose It app) about 3-5 days a week, so that I'd actually be over my daily target if I didn't count the exercise. Despite this, progress has been steady so I attribute that to my definition.
-
I basically have abs now and I never thought it'd be as easy as this.
-
Holy shit not only is everything loaded with more calories than you would expect, packaging is designed to fool you into thinking you're eating less than you are.
-
There's something so different about being proud of the way you look. It gives everything else in your life a certain kind of shine. Having said that...
-
It's really about self acceptance and self-confidence too. Midway through my journey I was already getting good responses, with regards to dating and even people around me, even though the difference was noticeable only to me. The actual change was the way i carried myself now buoyed with this new sense of self. I want to get to a place where I can unlock that separate from my looks but that's a different journey.
