Hi,
This post will be the foundation of this log, and I hope the first of many
I’ll start with an introduction, thanks to those who will read it entirely
I’m a late 23 years old medical student. This is very important because my daily life is almost entirely defined by my worK.
In the past, I’ve done many differents sports but often for a short period of time, except for hockey that I used to do from my fifth year until last year.
I’ve always been the healthy one in a family of mostly overweighted poeple, but since I’ve started university 7 years ago I went from 78kg to 96kg in 5 years.
In 2019 I was desperate to loose some weight, and I had already used this website for a while so I decided to start a daily log, my worst enemy being my consistancy in training (I am motivated but when I train alone I always abandon after 3 weeks tops). My dream was to loose 11kg and go back to 85 (I’m 1.90 meters tall)
After keeping my daily log for 2 months, and eating better (I eat really bad), I went from 96kg to 88kg. It was definetly the time I felt the most happy in my body and it impacted many aspect of my life in a good way
In september 2019 I also had to stop hockey because my studies took me so much time that I wasn’t consistent in my team.
After that, I went trough a hard beakup after 5 years of relationship and that plus the university work became my whole life. I completely stopped exercising and never went back to it.
Today, all I have left to do to finish med school is 1 years of intership. (I have just finished 6 month of it, in Belgium we have to do 18 month of internship, 3 month in each specialty to finish med-school)
I’m very very invested in my work, even if the medical side of it isn’t my passion, I’ve discovered that the management side of the medical world was my absolute dream so I’m actually taking every responsability I can toward the organisation of my faculty and the hospital I work in. Next year I’ll like to start a specialisation to become an ER specialist.
During COVID-19, my life was entirely dedicated to my work, my studies, and my family. I haven’t workout in almost 2 years, and today I weight 98kg. The 100kg bar is my worst nightmare, and now that my schedule is a little bit cleared, I have more time to look at myself in the mirror and see how disapointed I am.
Since nothing else than this forum ever worked for me, I’m back. I’m determined, I’m motivated, and most importantly I’m more mature than last time, since I already went trough this road.
My goal is to loose 13kg and to reach my 85kg dream, but this time with a more balanced training so that I don’t get hit by the yoyo effect that much.
Last time I went from nothing to 7 days of training a week, 1 hour of training at least a day, and hard diet. That was too brutal and even if it worked it wasn’t realistic to hold in the long term.
Voila, it’s all I have to say to dress the picture, I hope that this will be a new start towards me being as healthy as I advice my patients to be !
