Low impact, no mans land avoidance?

Ok, no worries for now, 5 1/2 hours walking in 3 days and 3am and some wine means I'm knackered and gonna sleep for now! 

 

When I would smoke, i walk, or exercise.Well the thoughts have up'ed their game and I'm pretty knackered now lol. Nowhere near the early days, just thoughts I don't want to entertain. Lower impact ideas now required?!

 

Why am I not the size of a supermodel too with all this exercise, life is pretty unfair lol.

I don't think you get to be a supermodel until one year...I'm getting close so I will report back!

Because you're much healthier than a supermodel.  :)

Marti,, you are doing fantastic lady!!  Just keep moving forward.  Enough of this thinking nonsense....thinking gets us in trouble. 

[El Bandito]

Morning Marti!

 

HALT.

 

Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired. We are always more at risk when we feel these.

 

Just keep nudging along, you are doing Brilliantly!

Maybe a new hobby to keep you busy? My wife used to make jewelry by wrapping stone and crystals in wire then adding them necklaces. Maybe teach yourself a different cuisine? Tai chi? Numbers game?

Thank you all. 

 

Yes, something like that is what I'm after Paul. I'm pretty surprised I am still having thoughts but have understood they are "only thoughts". So I'm ok. But I don't like having them ya know. So I walk and by the time I've done that for a while, the thoughts are literally gone. Or I do Yoga or whatever - no more thoughts. Anything else, like cleaning/reading etc just seems to distract for a while but not actually get rid of them altogether if that makes sense. Perhaps I should just google hobbies? Need something as well as exercise I think.

Size is a function of The Kitchen, not The Gym.

 

The Gym only controls several hundred calories a week, if you're lucky.

 

The Kitchen controls tens of thousands of calories a week for most folks.

 

Weight loss is, for The Sarge, about 85/15.  85% focused in The Kitchen and what he eats and 15% or less all the damned running he does (half-marathon (13.1 mile) run yesterday).

 

 

 

Easy Peasy

PS: Not sure my body is "feeling healthy"  think it's pretty shell shocked with all this walking tbh lol. Reeallly creaky right now, day of rest so I did an hours gardening instead, fun planting stuff.

You said this to me before and you are absolutely right - sadly - I'd rather 20 mins yoga was the counter to weight gain ;)  You will be pleased to know I did listen and I have been losing 1lb a week for 7 weeks with some diet amendments mostly. All good and the tips were appreciated :)  Only wish I could do better but now I don't smoke....  FOOD TASTES SOOOOOO GOOD!!!  I eat steak now too, which I always thought was tasteless! Victim of my own quitting smoking success :)
