The heaviest I was last year was about 106 Kg. And I felt it. Putting on socks and tying my shoes were difficult to do. I wouldn&#8217;t say I was super overweight but I was feeling a noticeable difference as well as not feeling all that great. But instead of dieting or making serious adjustments, I took a more gradual approach to the problem. If I am to lose weight I needed something that I can sustain. And that is easier to do when the changes are gradual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest change is to eat less. I love dinners but I really needed to cut it down. I no longer have the same life as I did when I was in High School and earlier where I was much more active. But I hadn&#8217;t really changed my eating habits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Snacking. I really need to be better at that as well. I like some of the junk foods but they need to be cut down. Eating out. This is probably the biggest issue. Thankfully working from home due to COVID-19 allowed me to remove the temptation of eating out at lunchtime downtown where my company&#8217;s office lives. So many choice options there and the problem is that it&#8217;s all often too rich and unnecessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So I managed to drop back down to 97 Kg. I&#8217;m quite happy with that result. I was initially just hoping to break 100 Kg and maintain that but so far I&#8217;ve managed to stay at 97 Kg. I still have some more to go. I should probably be around 90-92 Kg. So this year I&#8217;m trying to break 95 Kg and keep it there first. If I do more then yay!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other resolution. Get Stuff Done (GSD)! I&#8217;ve been putting some things off for too long. This year I want to complete some projects that I started so long ago. This GSD thing actually started last year. Wrote a 50K word novel (a first pass and awful draft of one at least.) I don&#8217;t know if I will get to do a rewrite of it this year. Taking my time on the rewrite. Too many other projects to tackle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, back to GingSD.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A bit late in posting and it will be a little on the fail side&#8230; Last year my resolution was to lose weight.
