We don’t have a ton of activity in this community, so it seemed like a good time to ask everyone how they’re doing with their fitness goals.
- What are your current fitness goals?
- When did you set these goals?
- How has progress been towards those goals?
- What has been helpful in making progress?
- What kinds of setbacks have you seen?
I set a goal to lose about 75lbs but only lost 50. That’s about 15 months ago. I’d say it’s a good try.
Next goal is strength. So I’m starting at the very bottom which feels embarrassing. Have only moved up in reps very slowly.
The one thing I learned about setbacks from dieting is that if you have a very emotional reaction to failure, you will have to train yourself out of self destructive behaviour to get anywhere. It has to be nothing but a speed bump from a mental resilience point of view.
