Enough was enough. My quarantine started with me losing my job and my grandfather passing. I was stress eating, over eating, making desserts every night (cookies, brownies, pies) drinking way too much alcohol for about 2 weeks. Then I really decided in this time “off” it’s time to focus. There is no excuses !! I have time to exercise, time to cook my own meals, time to work on myself. As much as there is stress, financial pressure, and all while grieving - I need to take this time to better myself in all aspects. I want to come out of this “quarantine” a better me. My starting weight this Monday was 207.8- today on Thursday I’m 201.8 that’s 6 lbs in 4 days. This was all by just stopping my unhealthy, binge, overeating habits. I’m drinking water and trying to keep my calories around 1500. I’m lowering carb intake - drinking more water. Haven’t fully got into the swing of using my weights at home- but definitely been taking at least 2 walks a day (a light jog some distance) going back to basics. Slow and steady!! Happy my mindset feels right at this time. Last week i couldn’t say the same!! Continuing to push !
