I found a diet of coffee, salad and hate has worked for me in the past.

I have actually done that same diet in the past but with a stupid amount of running

I just got a puppy a week ago and get on the ground and wrestle with her for a while. Gets my heart going and a good sweat without being high impact. Do that a couple of times a day and my exercise bike as well as a diet change and I should be solid.

The best motivation is the long term investment of having achieved something and not wanting to lose it. Don’t rely too heavily on one thing for motivation, such as a one year goal. It’s best to understand early on that fitness is something you do until you’re old and gray or die. When just starting, use every bit of motivation you can though and don’t overwhelm yourself by changing every aspect of your life at once.

Start small and build momentum. Cut out sodas for a month, then fast food, then switch to whole grain wheat products only, then cut out processed foods, etc.

I drink sweet tea still, but I consistently decreased the amount of sugar I put in it over many months to the point you can hardly tell there’s sugar in it at all. I can, but that’s because I’ve cut out soda, even diet, altogether, to the point my tastebuds are more receptive to small amounts of sugar. And I still only drink a cup a day. The rest is water and milk.

Once you get to the point you’ve bought a home gym, a nice water filter, and a nice pair of running shoes e.g. $1000+ worth of investment AND convenience...it’s hard to turn around on it. Thus, the cost sunk fallacy comes into play.

Still doesn’t prevent burning out.
Imo the only thing that does that is accepting this is a permanent lifestyle change, which brings us back to not overwhelming yourself until you’ve gotten to that point.

The amount of willpower gained up to that point is considerable as well

You tie your shoes whether running a marathon or walking around the block. It starts somewhere/

Anyone else doing intermittent fasting?

I'm trying to gain enough weight where a good gust of wind won't blow me over.

Lots of heavy lifting and protein helped me

@Mountain Man 🏔 i last at most like 3 days than i end up eating an entire bag of oreos at like 1230am

Lmao

I can do 3 days, but its brutal at the end.

Damn I’m killing myself with 12-14 hours

@Mountain Man 🏔
Yeah it's a lot better after 20 hrs I find. My stomach calms the fuck down, but I can smell a big mac 700 yards away lmao.
Keep going bro

Yeah I started with 12 for a few weeks now im doing 14. Then I’ll do 16. I don’t need to lose weight I’m almost too skinny. I’m trying gain more muscle. So lots of workouts, jogs, protein. Just trying to stay healthy and in shape.

Thanks man

i do IF while i'm at work

i work 9 hour days so that's a pretty good length of time

idk if IF is the right thing to call it, really its just not eating lunch

Shelf stockers better take a look at a real hero.
