I just saw your pictures. Well done! Smaller and hotter indeed! ;)

Phew!

Thanks! :smile: I hope I can really pull it off! @uvi5 - wow 3 hours of walking per day! That's impressive!

@cheshirecatastrophe‌ - thanks for the advice! :smile: Yeah, I'll make sure that I'll ramp up slow for real; that is the biggest challenge for me. During the three or four times during the last months that I felt that the pain in my leg were gone I couldn't control myself and ran too much, too fast or both. That's why I…

My monologue continues: Step 1: walk 30+ minutes every day (current streak: 7) Step 2: do 30+ minutes of exercise (running/cycling/swimming/fitness) every day (current streak: 6) Step 3: eat 2 pieces of fruit every day (current streak: 5) Step 4: eat a salad every day (current streak: 5) Step 5: don't smoke (current…

Ok, I changed the order a bit. Now step 1-5 are my baseline (bold), meaning I expect myself to do them every day (except for 1 cheat day per week). All the next steps are things I eventually want to do, but for now they are a bonus (meaning I shouldn't worry if I don't do them, just keep experimenting). Step 1: walk 30+…

It's a good day again. Step 1: walk 30+ minutes every day (current streak: 5) Step 2: eat a salad every day (current streak: 3) Step 3: do 30+ minutes of exercise (running/cycling/swimming/fitness) every day (current streak: 4) Step 4: eat 2 pieces of fruit every day (current streak: 3) Step 5: do 5+ minutes of morning…

Ok I did all 6 on my list, added another 6 on my list (2 of which I started doing already yesterday). Remember (if anyone is reading this :P), some may seem strict and/or unrealistic (like 7 and 10), but I allow myself 1 cheat day per week. I'm still experimenting, so if something doesn't work I'll just adapt it. Step 2 is…

I also do a lot of walking. About 5-7 km per day, 7-8 kilometers per hour. It helps me burn calories, clear my thoughts and I also get some good ideas for work/studies while walking.

My experience is that the more you lose, the more people start noticing. I've lost 55 lbs (a year ago), and people were really commenting me about that. But when I lost 20 lbs people already started noticing. Or at least they stopped telling me that I must've been eating a lot lately ;). Every pound you lose is more…

Ok, I've changed my mind - let's accelerate! These things aren't that hard, so I allow myself to do more of them from now on. Doing step 1 every day is has priority, but I will try to do the other things as well as a bonus. Step 1: walk 30+ minutes every day (current streak: 3) Step 2: eat a salad every day (current…

Took another walk. Step 1: walk 30+ minutes every day (current streak: 3) Step 2: eat a salad every day (starting: March 9) Step 3: do 5+ minutes of morning exercises every day (starting: March 12) Step 4: eat 2 pieces of fruit every day (starting: March 16) Step 5: do 15+ minutes of exercise…

Time for an update Step 1: walk 30+ minutes every day (current streak: 2) Step 2: eat a salad every day (starting: March 9) Step 3: do 5+ minutes of morning exercises every day (starting: March 12) Step 4: eat 2 pieces of fruit every day (starting: March 16) Step 5-100: undetermined Future steps may change if I get better…

A small addition: You can also share it like this: Step 1: walk 30+ minutes per day (current streak: 1) Step 2: eat a salad every day (start: next Monday) Step 3: undetermined etc I made my current step bold. The nice thing of this method is that eventually you'll have a long list of habits that you've built! Also I can…
