It’s time for a heart to heart

I have a lot of things to talk about here.

First month of Q2 is coming to an end. I have so many thoughts. Some things went okay. Many things are meh.

First, lets iron out the laundry

Fat, bloated. Eating like shit. Letting things slip by. Letting days slip by.

My progress has come to a screeching halt. The running pace is marginally improving (I did set fastest 5k times). But my weight loss has absolutely stopped. At the same time, my eating has become bad. I am not logging my calories regularly. And I started boozing again. My sleep got bad. A lot of this is driven by pollen allergies. This year I have actually struggled bad. I don’t know whats going on. Also, I think I am feeling good about other things in life. Like work and relationship. But it doesn’t matter. If I can get through all this and still achieve my physical goals, I will be happy.

I think this time around, it felt like I was struggling a LOT with allergies because I know what optimal operating conditions for me are. Optimality for me includes eating right and running regularly.

How do I fix it

Chris terrell said that Action is the best thing to break a slump. Okay fine. Let’s do a 10k soon then. Let’s break this slump. No matter what happens, break this up.

Because I am addict, I have to keep a close eye on what I eat, drink, consume. I have to view myself as an addict. Having an addiction mentality

This is a literal and metaphorical MARATHON

You will climb this mountain one step at a time. One day at a time. And one race at a time.

Slowly chop off. Piece by piece by piece.

Look at today. That’s it.
