Hi all,
I've struggled with weight a lot of my life and I won't sit here and make a bunch of excuses for it at the end of the day I just binge eat and wasn't taking responsibility. I got all the way up to 155kg and I'm only 23 years old and 6ft. My mum is a bodybuilder and so is my father but I guess I just rebelled as a teen and didn't want anything to do with it? I don't really know. It's strained our relationship for sure especially my mum being so active and healthy and then having an overweight son is very embarassing for her but I've really gotten into MMA/UFC and I decided to make a change with my life. I failed in the past with diets because it was always for the wrong reasons, I want girls to like me, I want to look good for others etc this time I have a sport I want to get into and yeah I am REALLY overweight so it's not going to be easy but I've already made so many changes. I am tracking and calorie counting everything I eat, I am working out although yes it's difficult at my weight I am hitting the bag for 1 minute then running on the spot for 1 minute and rinse and repeat I can only last 7 minutes but that's way up from where I started at 3 minutes. Slowly everyday im progressing and I am down to 146kg and I know it isn't a lot but I can see myself actively maintaining this for my life and for the first time I don't want to cheat, I don't want to break it because it isn't a diet, it's just a lifestyle change and I found a passion that will help me.
I'm not the best with nutrition so i'll be sticking around the sub to see others journeys and advice but I just wanted to post this because I feel really proud of myself, I am hoping within the next few weeks I can drop down to 130 or so and have my workouts up to 30+ minutes but we'll see, baby steps! Tomorrow is 8 minutes im certain of it !!!
