I am a person who struggles with my weight and body image. I refuse to wear a bikini because of hatred of my stomach. I hate wearing tight fitting clothing because I feel fat. Whatever it is, I will always find something wrong with my body. One of the reasons I decided to do this fitness journey is because I feel unhealthy and out of shape, but I also decided to do it because daily exercise helps improve mental health. I decided for the beginning of this journey I will take it slow, and gradually intensify it as needed. I chose to document this journey because I feel it will be more motivation for me. I notice eating healthy and exercising on my own I tend to fail a lot, but I feel forcing myself to write about my experiences and showing monthly progress pictures will help me to succeed. I plan on doing this journey on my blog for six months to force myself to exercise, I may do monthly updates from time to time, but this will not be a permanent feature on my blog. So now for my plan. For my first week, I will be doing daily exercise for at least 30 minutes (or more) a day. This will be different things from intense work outs to more moderate work outs. I intend to do strength training 3 times a week. These strength trainings will be part of the 30-minute daily exercise. I will not do 30 minutes of strength training until I feel comfortable enough to do so. So here is my baseline picture and weight. I currently weigh 165 pounds. My goal weight is 145 pounds, but if I don’t reach my goal in 6 months it’s not a bad thing. Next week I will talk about my work outs I did during the week and how I felt after my first week. Wish me luck everyone!
