First month of my journey


Exactly one month ago I decided to start working out regularly to get in better shape. I wanted to be accountable and share this journey with others. This way it’s not going to be just a short-term fad.

I’m still trying to make excise a daily habit. It’s not going perfect, but it’s not too bad either. I’m working out most days of the week, and trying not to punish myself for skipping a day.

As far as my food intake, I eat mostly when I’m hungry. This is one of the important things for healthy eating, and I think I got this one down. However, I’m still struggling with stop eating when I’m satisfied. This is pretty difficult habit to break. My inner fat kid just wants to polish the plate.  Hopefully, I’ll overcome this challenge in the near future.

Below is my 2-week progress table. I admit it does not look encouraging. The weight has not changed; the fat percentage has not changed. But let me tell you one thing. It’s OK. What changed is that my figure, my posture, and my confidence. Clothes look better on me, therefore I’m more confident in myself. Last night, I was out with my friends in simple black turtleneck sweater and jeans. Some of my friends were asking if I had lost weight. What a great compliment, right?
