Losers quit when they are tired, winners quit when they are done.
I am a loser. Did I quit? I don’t know. I think I’m still trying. I know I’m not across the finish line yet.
I can give you 1 million reasons why I am not where I want to be right now. I can also give you 1 million reasons why I keep trying to get back on the horse. If you follow this journey for the last 6+ years you’ll know it probably will never end for me. I did stop making weight loss goals two years ago because the number on the scale will really fuck with your head.
This is me trying.
We probably all seen the little image on Instagram somewhere about how to lose weight and it’s not about over eating on the weekends. I am over eating at times, eating junk, drinking too much. I’m overheating, I’ve gotten sick, I have tried to reel it in. I don’t want to be this way. I have worked way too had to fall and give in.
Some days are better than others.
This is me trying.
So my words here are empty because while I post this stuff to inspire, I don’t like to stumble, and I DON”T FAIL. So there comes a time where you have to look at yourself in the mirror. Ignore that you have a white nose hair sticking out so far that It might poke someone. Ignore the bush growing on your ear and tell yourself that you won’t go down without a fight.
This is me trying.
Year 50 is coming. I can’t stop it. None of us can no matter how long I keep buying clothes in the young mens section. No matter how much I order from Hot Topic or American eagle. I’ll just have to be a cool 50. I am okay with that. I am sure when I was 25 years old most people would have bet that I’d be dead by now and I pretty much would have believed them. But I’m not dead yet.
This is me trying.
I’ll be 50 in 194 days. SOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! I will be at my goal weight. The final resting stop by then. It’s teetering on 45/50 pounds at this point that I have to lose. I know that I can do it safely and in a healthy manner. I just have to get the eye of the tiger back that 2020 has washed away from me. Again. My old t-shirts say… NO EXCUSES!
Back on the hardcore Keto train. Sorry Cheetos, Popcorn and chocolate oh and sugary delicious whiskey.
This is me trying.
So I usually go into a bunch of personal stuff here. But not this week. Here are a few little things I will share.
I’ll tell you that I am enjoying the little bit of singing that I get to do right now knowing that it will end with the summer for the next few months.
My groin is fully healed and I am going to go full steam ahead in the gym after a successful low impact leg day yesterday.
I am spending quality time with my friends and family and hockey is back 🙂
I hope everyone is having a great summer.
I am trying.
