Still Going...

Trying to be as healthy as I can, more in mind and spirit these days than body, though the body is not out of the equation. I am still losing body fat - intermittent fasting and staying at a deficit while managing to lift here and there. On days I don't lift I do enough body weight exercises to stay on top of the game.

I have been preaching up and down about fitness and nutrition, but I am living proof that if you don't feed the mind with health thoughts your body will not matter if your mind goes south. Daily self-suggestion opposing any negative thoughts you may have is a good start. Just like they say that if you repeat a lie enough times you yourself begin to believe it. Trust me it is true. The best thing you can do is write out who you want to be, then begin to suggest to yourself that you already are that person. You will begin to notice that your conscious mind will start to act on impulses and thoughts given to it from the subconscious mind - therefore bringing about actions and events that will fulfill this new self image. It has happened for me in just a few days and I am only at the beginning of my journey.

I will reach my goal of 170lbs, then I will concentrate on building muscle. I will be that guy who walks in the room, gets a few glances and people say, "He must spend all week at the gym."

I raise my glass of ice-water to your health.
