Wow, it's been ages.
I'd like to give FS another try. Over the last 10 months I've been struggling to make any progress because I didn't have a clear strategy really.
Thanks to a local workshop, I've realised properly that what I need is a lifestyle change, not a diet. I know it's quite an obvious thing, but it's still something that takes a long time to truly understand.
Diets are quick, and easy in comparison. But for the last two months I have been focussing on my health, rather than my weight. And though this is the longer, more difficult route, I think it's the only thing that works long term.
An extensive health check was an eye opener. While I do not yet have any problems relating to my heart or lungs, I am definitely at risk due to my obesity (don't you just hate that word?). But it's also quality of life and mental health.
So instead of a diet and calory counting, I have been cutting down on food that is high in fat / sugar / salt. Simultaneously I have started exercising regularly.
You need to attack both issues: Physical activity and eating habits. Only one is not enough. But, I do it in small steps. Whereas before I would try to go from 0 to 100, I really feel that my attitude has changed. Slow and steady is the way to achieve lasting change.
I have been educating myself on the "Eatwell plate", and adding more healthy foods to my everyday food intake. I currently go swimming once a week. This will increase. All in good time.
I hope to post more soon. Hopefully I will find buddies here to do the journey together.
