Here’s a pic of myself... put on a few lbs in quarantine. I’m kinda liking the “thicc” look. 😊 What do u guys think; should I keep the belly? 🤔
So I promised y’all an update and it’s been about a year since the last of my 2019 six pack had disappeared and quarantine belly had just began to take shape. I had come to terms with it, I left myself go a little but in the back or my mind I had been convinced that once gyms reopened, I’d get back in shape in no time. After all, I didn’t want to end up like these guys on my page. It’s funny because I even had stopped weighing myself, convinced I had maybe only put a few more lbs. Today, I stepped on the scale for the fist time in quite awhile and I was honestly shocked; I’m at 251 lbs. Even last year, when I started noticing a few lbs here and there creeping up, I could have never imagined I’d be up over 60 lbs from my fighting weight! 😆 Now that my workplace is reopening and I am going to see my coworkers again, I’m sort of unsure how to feel. Do I embrace my new size, become the office fat guy? Should I admit I got big, blame it on quarantine, but work on getting back in shape? Can I even get back in shape? My diet is so different than what it was pre-pandemic. I lost total control over my cravings. I still lift weights, but I have no willpower to do it consistently let alone step on a treadmill. I’m planning on spending some time now deciding if I honestly enjoy being this size, how is it going to feel having to dress in something other than sweatpants now that I have this big gut? Am I really willing to stick to a strict diet and hit the gym every day. Let me know what you guys think.
