Maintenance
I am very content at my current size. So how do I stay here and enjoy life and not feel like a long term dieter. Regular exercise, keeping nutrition on course, and short term goals.
Short term goals give me constant focus. I am running a charity 5K for Busch Gardens Park in Tampa next Saturday. We get to run through the amusement park. Very Cool. So preparation in 60 minute high intensity cardio daily til then. By then I know that I can go at least an hour and pace. I’m doing the run at the end of a work shift. I’ll carb up a little before leaving work. Do the run and then sleep for the next night’s shift. Wow…now that I think about it, where do I get the energy? ;0)
Point is to continue to create goals to work towards and in working, maintain the healthy figure. ;0)
Peace

That’s pretty much it! There really is no ‘after’ just a ‘work in progress’! And we just keep at it. For me, until I hit that stage, again, I am trying to hit some numbers in the gym! It keeps us going!

I will always be a work in progress. For me its not about winning the prize (though that’s nice) it about staying focused and reaching the goals I set for myself in the gym. Short term goals are the prize when you reach them.

I think we got the key and for goodness sake, remove "eating" as an activity. Find something else to do.
