I struck up conversation with a regular at the gym today. I've seen him and his crew of regulars the last few months, but haven't spoken to them before.
He said he and his friends had noticed my good form and weight loss (16kg/35lbs lost since New Year) and to keep up the good work. Starting weight was 122kg/268lb.
Can't remember the last time I was given a compliment by a stranger. Made me so happy and motivated.
I've been here many, many times before, yoyo'd for years, and still aiming for my pre-Covid weight. At the 3 months mark I usually quit and go back to old bad habit. This time so far feels different!
Success this time around has been due to guarding 7-8hrs sleep practically every night, no phone in bed and tons more protein via shakes and yoghurt (veggie diet).
