"What interests me is an intellectual life that is not acquisitive, that is not trying to get anything else but just wants to be doing what it's doing. You have a kind of freedom and depth to yourself, and resources within yourself that no one can touch."

If I make it to age 35, I’ll be the strongest and most resilient person on the planet. Life is at such an uncertain low right now and I am also learning to adapt.
The last 2 years of my life were pretty good though.
For the next 8 months, patience will be a virtue until I am of an ideal body weight. Now I have to truly learn to regulate myself even through life’s challenges and setbacks WITHOUT food. I’m ready to be thrown into the deep end of the pool 🏊♀️
It’s been 6 months now, and boy is it a challenge. But it is easier no doubt. The noise around food has reduced.
Or maybe it has just become a habit by now to have a love-hate relationship with food.
But I must say that I have cracked the logical code to weight loss.
UPDATE : I LOVE me a 1400-1500 kcal diet!
It is so easy, well planned, helpful in my health and fitness goals, and keeps in a good psychological state of balance too! I lived for this day 😇
I really feel like emotional eating sometimes, especially when life is incredibly stressful. But thank goodness for Zumba, Pilates, Gym, and my friends R and S who make most evening walks so much more fun and I burn an easy 500 kcal on my active weekdays. It’s a journey 💪
Here's an instant life improvement hack. Stop watching the personal lives of people on social media and start reading / learning about the secrets of the universe, or biology, or any deep science.
You will be in awe of the world that you're part of. You will feel good about consuming something of substance instead of feeling terrible after comparing your life to someone else's who is also feeling terrible comparing their life to someone else's. Break the loop.
Nail biting, talking about it, therapy, frantic breathing, and really just dying a thousand deaths and crying. Crying happens when you are able to go to the deepest core of your issue and is cathartic.
Build your tolerance to handle stressors, but never ever take to substance.
