I’ve been exercising at least once a week for about a month (really, it’s been at least 2x a week, except for one week). I started out with small things, like only doing treadmill + three sets of a single exercise and then leaving for the day. Last week, I finally signed up for a paid gym membership instead of my free community gym, so now I have more, better exercise equipment.
I’ve also been counting calories and it’s been pretty okay. I’ve lost a tiny bit of weight, which is exciting, especially since my fitness efforts before have been without a scale.
I won’t lie, I’m mostly relying on extrinsic motivation right now—what can I say, I want to look attractive—but I do have some hereditary medical concerns that I’m trying to nip in the bud as best I can. And I think that, maybe more than ever, I’m approaching this journey with a healthy attitude. I’m not really expecting too much out of myself too quickly, and I’m open to gradual life changes rather than instant progress.
That said…I’m scared that I’m just gonna revert back to my unhealthy ways. Basically the past three or four summers I’ve similarly taken initiative on my health (though probably not in as healthy and moderate a way), but then come the fall and winter it all went out the door.
