24: and there's so much more

PeterJX

Hi gang. I'm on here mainly to track my food but I thought I'd share the 24 things I currently do to lose weight and, (hopefully), gain strength. I'm male, 56 , 5' 11" and weighed in this morning at 179.5 lbs. I'm shooting for 168 lbs. I'm currently training with kettlebells, bodyweight, jump rope and dog rassling.

Feel free to share what yours are. Here, in no particular order, are the habits I've acquired over the last 10 years to keep myself fit.

1. Track food intake - notebook, my fitness pal, etc.

2. Have occasional treats

3. Walk a lot, (the dog, to the store, etc.)

4. Strength train 3x a week

5. Don't train without a plan.
a) have a number of 'plans' on hand for future training cycles

6. Metcon 3-4x a week

7. Stop watching TV - or at least reduce the amount: reduces exposure to commercials, (esp. food related ones). The 'mute' button is your friend.

8. Use some form of ad block on your web browser to cut out commercials, (for the same reason as above).

9. Drink water

10. Drink coffee

11. Don't drink ANY soda, (even diet)

12. Get enough sleep

13. Work on mobility

14. Weigh yourself once a week

15. Eat breakfast

16. Pack your lunch every day

17. Cut down on eating out, (see above)

18. Eat pizza, (well, eat out a little )

19. Eat dark chocolate

20. Drink fresh fruit smoothies, (with whey protein)

21. Skip rope

22. Drink chocolate milk

23. Buy measuring cups, spoons and a scale

24. Eat on smaller plates

So what are yours?
