Fitness journey to better myself
Jake here from PA, I swam/trained with shark in college. Life hit and I gained a good amount of weight at my desk job. In my prime I was in the 150s, August this year I hit 207/208 lbs. This is when I decided to start my journey with Shark working out again. I used to binge drink a lot based on past tramas. Since August I've committed to 4 things that I believe have best helped my journey:
1) Stopped drinking completely (minus 3 times around my birthday I regret, but I am past it)
2) getting better sleep consistently
3) working out 2-3 times per week (steady meaningful workouts not overdoing it) I also learned the hard way too much cardio will make you extra hungry, therefore when I ate lean chicken breast after it had the best affect.
4) eating healthy, lean meats like 97/3 ground beef, tuna, chicken breast/wings and steak have been the best for me.
I started this journey exactly 4 months ago at 207/208. Currently today I am down to 187/188 lbs hitting PRs in the gym weekly, still committing to being sober, as said below also, Seltzer drinks have helped me the best. Feeling good today, going strong 💪.
