My fitness journey is annoying me. I can only
imagine how it annoys those around me. Everyone that is successful in their own
journey to thin muscular perfection says you have to become obsessed to
actually make it. And F me if that is not so damn true. What am I eating, what
should I be eating, when should I eat it….what is my workout focus today…what
should my focus be…when the F is this fat going to magically disappear? Jesus H
Christ! Thus obsession is born.
Having a trainer is likely ideal, but I like to do
things the hard way. (or I am too cheap to spend the money, which ever) So when
I am not laser focused on my eating or my workouts, then I am pouring over
websites and books to educate myself. Who knew this would be so tough?
Especially at my age (10,000 years old!) When I was 23 I lost like 50 pounds
after the birth of my first child. I stopped eating most things, didn’t eat
after 6pm, lifted weights, and took kick boxing 3 days a week. BOOM! 50 pounds
down, no thing. Um, Houston, we have a problem!
So I have decided what I am doing now is not
working the way I would like it to, that means it is adjustment time. I am
still going to lift on my split routine like I have been. I am still going to
increase my volume and then my weight as I should. But now on my days off from
lifting (Wednesdays and Saturdays) I am going to do an hour long cardio session
instead of lifting more on those days like I have been. We will see if that
increases my fat burning effects.
I have also enlisted the help of a dietitian. I
got an eating plan for weightloss from her. I am going to follow this plan to
the T. (at least 95% of the time anyway!) The plan has me eating lean proteins,
veggies, and limited carbs (fruit and nuts mostly) This shit is going to F’ing
work! Or I will be more annoying with more changes!
See! Obsessed and annoying. I know, I know….
FAT, get off my body already!!
