I start by saying that I am not overweight, but I am not where I want to be. I want to lose those last pounds to fit into a weight class so I can compete.
I have let myself go a little. Stress factors are school, work and health. I had surgery on my right arm, and I am not allowed to work out for at least the first two weeks. Two years ago, I wouldn’t have thought in a million years that I would miss the gym. But I do. I feel too hyped up, but I can’t move. I need a way to use the energy and power. I can’t sleep because I am not as „exhausted“ as usual. Even returning will be hard since I can’t train like I used to for at least two months until I can ease back in.
This bothers me a lot and stresses me out mentally and emotionally. I overcompensate by eating, which results in gaining weight, which drifts me further away from my goal.
I am physically injured because of the surgery and I injure myself further by eating crap.
It is evening here. I am done eating for today. I feel physically sick from all the junk I shoved in my mouth today. Tomorrow will be a fresh start.
I am starting to prepare myself for the gym again. Even if the training will look tremendously different from what I am used to, I need to get my champion mindset back. I need to stop giving up because of one single obstacle.
I am getting back on track.
20lbs to go.
