Stressed about all the wrong things...

By princesstia

· 721 views

I decided to do the surgery definitely to get down to a healthy BMI.. But in my mind I have this idea of some fit person crossfit training and so on and so forth. Then reality hits, I may not get the luxury of the weight loss I'm looking for.. I'm doing tons and tons of research on bodybuilding and 5x5 stronglifts (I really want abs) but in reality, is all of that even possible? Will I have the energy needed to guide my weight loss in the muscle building direction? Stressed because I don't want to be a skinny fat person. You know, weighs only 150 pounds but has like 35% body fat.. just flubbery. SMH. See, worrying about the wrong things. I have to continue to remind myself, just one day at a time. That's all. Set small goals and do the best you can to reach them.. I hope I'm not the only person stressing about this...

    I have to admit the same thoughts have crossed my mind and when I start to worry about it I just remember that I already have a plan in place to do something about it and then it's just taking it one day at a time. I already have some apps and stuff on my phone to help me with my workouts and keeping track of my eating and as long as I'm doing what I'm supposed to I'm going to do my best not to worry about the end result. Make small goals along the way and I'm sure that will help as well. You got it girl:-)

    I think we all worry about it-but it is the doing that ends the worrying. You are doing so enjoy the ride. It is reinvent yourself time :-) !
