Tomorrow will mark 5 weeks of consistent working out and food habit change. While some days I have felt fantastic others I feel I am in a lull of sorts and nothing is happening. Why is this?
If on day one as I pointed out yesterday I could barely run a block or two and on Day 33 I ran 5 miles joyously, I am making progress. It all depends on what you are looking at. 15 pounds in less than 5 weeks is progress. Just because the scale didn't tip another pound down from yesterday means nothing. The process of losing weight and reshaping your body does not happen over night.
This is a journey of learning not only what goes on physically with me but the how the emotional roller coaster plays into all this as well.
Each day we all get a ton of thoughts that enter our minds and the best solution so far has been to stop and ask myself, "Is this thought true?" or to pause and just feel how the thought is making me feel, almost as if I am watching another person and then watch that thought go away... good or bad.
The essence of who I am is good no matter what the "Other Person" thinks of me. It is an interesting concept but one I am inclined to believe because the results are undeniable!
Health and Happiness!
Bill
