Re: Since the Pandemic, are you .....

That’s what I wondered about also.
391.6 pounds doesn’t sound so good even if you were 7 feet tall


Anyway, I have figured out what the problem REALLY is. I’m spending too much time online. Normally I’m active all day long but I’ve forfeited being active, for my own self importance online and it’s not working. It’s more of an unhealthy addiction which needs to change so from this day forward I will change this.

My plan of action is to start journeying again to gain more self awareness of my personal habits. Writing down a list of things I’m going to do for the day has always helped me in the past and I stopped it in favour of being online.

Before my online activity is limited but since this pandemic I’ve changed my lifestyle that didn’t need changing. Since I live in the country and rarely see anyone, I can go outside anytime I want so today I’m making a list of things that need doing and actually DO THEM, cause at the end of the day, I want to feel good about myself and that hasn’t been happening lately.

I’ve always been an athlete and this is very unlike me so I need it to stop.

Thanks for all the help you guys. I know what I need to do now and it has more to do with laziness than eating. I just was in denial.

Have a GREAT DAY folks. You’re awesome.

There’s a bush chord of wood that needs chopping.
It’s ash wood so has a really straight grain and few knots sound easy to split.
Then there’s raking and gardening to do. That’s what I’ll be doing today.
More exercise, less sitting around getting tempted by food.

I think keezoy meant pounds Mups......just over 12.5 stone...

Re: Since the Pandemic, are you .....

Good plan Bratti, I have always limited my time on the forum and the TV preferring to live a life (preferably outside) instead of watching someone else live theirs.
This life is not a rehearsal......

Re: Since the Pandemic, are you .....

Oh dear. THanks for pointing out that typo. :0 There was not meant to be a 1 in front of the 78. I weigh 78 kilos and I am 180 centimetres tall which is five feet ten and three quarters give or take a milimetre or two.

Re: Since the Pandemic, are you .....

That was a very quick and exremely efficient diet keezoy, please post details.

Re: Since the Pandemic, are you .....

Easy mate. Just type it right the first time and you're larfin!

Re: Since the Pandemic, are you .....

Well let's give that a try then – I am 5' 6", approximately 167 centimetres tall and weigh 90 kilos.

Nope, I typed that right but still weigh more than you and more than I should!

Re: Since the Pandemic, are you .....

Hmm unless you have bones like tree trunks, yes you're carrying a little more than ideal. BUt at least there's a lot of things you can do about it. Get crackin' then!..

Re: Since the Pandemic, are you .....

Haha. That was funny.
Another important change that’s happened is that my husband is home 75% more due to the pandemic and he eats a lot more and a lot differently than I do. Most times he eats , I’d eat too so my eating habits changed drastically. That’s got to change back. Ive decided to transition to a vegetarian lifestyle by eliminating eating meat. I’m going to start a new lifestyle of productivity first. I have too much to do to spend hours of time online everyday . Much of the time is well worthwhile though. On the saxophone site I belong to I learn an awfully lot from more experienced players so it’s not all bad. Plus having online friends is nice. Somehow I’ll go from researching something to being completely distracted. I’ve just got to find a balance that works better. I’m sure I’m not the only one. Apparently a lot of people have gained weight through this pandemic so I don’t feel so bad.
Thanks
