Did my 15 minutes of cardio again, took a day off yesterday since I needed to study but I’m at it again. It’s far easier now so I might turn up the knob to make it a bit harder again tomorrow. I’d do more but I don’t have the time in the morning. Food wise ate a bit less today since I made myself an oatmeal shake in the ballpark of 600 calories instead of breakfast. Also been doing my fasts so that should help me going forward to lose weight.

First time here and I appreciate this community existing. <3

Finally out of my winter SAD. Last week started super well, then drank on first date night in a few weeks… that’s another story. Then Friday drank some more and the weekend I was in a depression pit. Working up the courage to dump my expensive booze…

Got out of bed relatively on time and did 22 minutes on the bike. Started back on therapy today with an introduction call to make sure it was a good fit both ways. First appointment is next week.

Been doing really well in my training course, I came to peace that I’m by far not the brightest on there but I can make up for it by being the most dedicated. My locking in is being noticed and praised for once and it’s feeling really good. I think I much rather identify as a hard worker than a genius, it keeps me humble and makes me put the time in to learn something new everyday.

Passed a major test I needed for my training today, the philosophy the teacher is instilling is one of fail and try again. I think I been doing well in this regard because I been learning from my mistakes. Some of the other dudes aren’t taking it well and it saddens me, I know it prob shouldn’t and I can’t help them if they give up but idk. Still doing well with the course work, my epa 608 materials and my cardio all this time plus eating reasonably on my non fast days and locking in when I fast.

All this is difficult but when I get a good career out of it all and can help my family it’s gonna be worth it. Been a neet for most of my time posting on this site and if I manage to break out it’ll only be because of the love and support from everyone around me. Teacher says money changes people, I believe him but I’m gonna do my best to remember where I came from.

My cardio is consistent and not really something I struggle with anymore, right now going forward gonna be focusing on portion size and keeping my fasts. I know food is gonna be something I’m gonna have to shift every couple of months as I go down in weight but the same idea and discipline is important. Also means I can eat my feelings no more and have to sit with them but that’s fine. So far nothing stressful to test me so no idea how long I’ll last on this reduction and fasts.
