Explorations of Motives to Lose Weight

Exercise

leave a comment »

In a recent comment someone talked about exercise. I have a poor attitude toward exercise, even though there is a positive history.

I have at various times in my life taken up racquetball, jogging, fast walking, and a short lived stint with bike riding (someone stole my bike and I never bought another one). Each time I try one of these activities I start off slow and  work my way up into greater intensity. But it’s been a few years since I’ve tried.

Suffering through a personal tragedy, I spent two years just forgetting about my own health and eating whatever I wanted. That’s left me in bad shape. My knees hurt. My feet hurt. My back hurts. I lose my breath easily. Exercise seems like something I couldn’t attempt without major problems.

Since I’ve been on an eating plan for the past six weeks, though, I’ve felt better. And maybe at some point I’ll be motivated to work my way into an exercise program.

However, more than the physical problems I’ll have to over come is a big mental roadblock.

And as far as I can see, most of this obesity problem is just a mind game. Get your game on in your mind and the rest is simple math.

Your input on these thoughts is always welcome.
