April 2016- January 2017. 9 months in. I’m hard on myself. So don’t mind me saying I’m disappointed in where I am. I’m working on self-love. And I thought that was would be the easiest thing to achieve. It’s right up there with the weight loss.
This is me now. I’ve put so much work in. Tears. Sweat. I’m proud of myself but I feel I could’ve done better.
Let me tell you. This isn’t as easy as you think. You have your good days. You have your bad days. But the one thing you don’t want to do is give up.
I have pretty good health. But I was borderline pre-diabetic. So unless to be “thick” I would have to take insulin for the rest of my life followed by pills and not eating what I want. And let me tell you being “thick” for a man isn’t worth it.
I’m very self-conscious about myself. I’m far from skinny. But I thought this might help somebody. Keep pushing. No matter how long it takes you, do it for you. You want the cookies, eat it. You want to go out and enjoy life with your friends with food and drinks, do it. One bad meal/day won’t mess up your progress. Don’t stress over the scale (something that took me forever to lose). Enjoy the process!
It took me almost 9 months to realize this. I finally got the courage to join workout classes. I didn’t want to workout in front of anybody. But Zumba, Zumba Hip Hop, & Hip Hop Step have been so much fun. I truly don’t realize I’m working out but once I’m done I feel all the sweat around my back and stomach.
