Breakups have been the some of the largest catalysts for growth in my life. Only time will take the pain away, but take the opportunity to use the pain to fuel positive change in your life, because that kind of heartache doesn’t happen all the time.
Did I hear a rock and stone?
I’ve stuck to my routine and diet for a month now, and had someone tell me that i looked healthy recently.
True dat.
Also, the karma thing on the old forum was dumb. Bots have no problem getting karma, but i haven’t been able to post there ever and was moderately active on Reddit.
I personally find using an exercise bike and watching a show on my phone or listening to a podcast/book to give me extra motivation, since i am being doubly productive. You could do that for a few weeks to build the habit of going at least 🤷♂️
What i like to do weight lifting wise starting out is compound lifts in a push/pull/legs split because it’s efficient for your time, and a simple base to build on later:
Push day: bench press and overhead press
Pull day: Pullups or Lat pulldowns and Standing or Seated Rows
Legs day: Squats and Romanian Deadlifts
Active rest 1 or 2 days if needed: walking or exercise bike
Repeat
Diet, sleep and consistency are particularly important for weight loss. As much as it may suck, counting calories and staying healthily below a weight maintenance amount (500-1000 below) is going to be what will help you burn fat. You can calculate that with a calorie calculator – I’d just Google a couple.
Best of luck to you! Other people may have different or better tips :) this is just what i like to do.
