Introduction
Some time passed since I had my #introduceyourself post, so a small recap before we dive into the post. My name is Adi ( from Adrian ), I am from Timisoara, Romania . Currently working as a Game Developer, working daily with Unity and C# other things I work on are personal Games/Apps, graphic design from time to time, watching tv series/movies is one of the main hobbies during my free time.
What's this all about?
Well after all these years of me trying to lose weight and go down some kilograms just to put them back double made me do this. I'll start blogging my journey maybe this way I'll stay committed long term.
I need to make some rules for this to work, the rules can/will be changed if necessary.
The almighty rules!
I need to drink at least 2L of water each day no matter what.
(While this sounds pretty usual for me this was one of the big problems, I had weeks with drinking little to no water, all I had was a lot of Pepsi and Coca Cola)I need to give up Pepsi/Coca cola.
(This is going to be hard, it's an addiction, I'll try to ditch them but if it's too hard, I'll have a small one during my cheat day, yea I'll have one of that too)I'll start hitting the gym at least 3 times / week, I'll do my best to go 4 times, but 3 is the least I need to go.
(Well at least one good thing happened already, started the gym last monday, everything goes well so far)Stop eating junk food, and as many as possible vegetables and fruits to this journey.
(I am not a vegetables/fruits guy but this needs to change)
I need to avoid all the unnecessary things, and keep myself focused.
(By this I mean no hanging out because that might mean eating some junk food in town or drinking juice, no more nachos at the cinema etc. )I'll have one cheat day per week.
(One day per week I can eat whatever I want, without "abusing" that day. Here's a sneak peek with the last sunday's cheat day)
These are the rules I remember for now, I'll add more later if I remember.
If you have any advices feel free to leave them below, any help is greatly appreciated!
Where do I stand now?
Let's see where do I stand now.
I currently have 143kg (measured last week) and I am ~184cm tall, I know 143 it's a lot, and it should have never got this far, usually it happens to lazy people (like me, but you could add stupidity to that too).
What's the plan/target?
My target is getting under 120kg by the end of the year, that's a little over 8 months and should be more then enough time to achieve it.
I will post more blogs with what I did and when, maybe weekly measurements, weekly picture something to record the progress that should definitely support me more.
Thank you!
Now that you've got to the end of my very first real blog post, I'd like to thank you and ask you to leave any suggestions or advices below.
