Progress is progress, and I think I have officially hit the point of hard work. I am not worried, though, because the number one thing that impacts my weight is my diet, and mine is completely straightened out. Besides, I do not know if my body could physically handle me going back to a junkie diet again.
When driving home from an activity this weekend, I came to a realization as to how far I have come since the beginning of the year (do not get me started on when I weighed nearly 270 pounds). Since 10AM Saturday morning I have:
- Swam a mile (in 55 min 40 sec, mind you)
- Performed some minor yard work
- Washed two cars
- Bleached a deck
- Cooked/grilled out for company
- Chores around the apartment
- Set up a scanner
- Cooked lunch for company
- Helped someone list an apartment on Craigslist
- Walked around Fells Point, Baltimore for two hours
- Played drums for an hour and a half
- Laundry (in progress)
Yes, this was an exceptionally busy weekend, but that is not my point. My point is I would not have had the energy to do all of this in 36 hours just a couple months ago. I also know that I am going to get an incredible night's sleep tonight (also a rarity when you are morbidly obese), and I will be ready to take on the week.
It feels amazing to have all this energy!
