This post showed up in my feed right time. Minutes ago I was on Google searching 'How to motivate oneself for exercise' and then I opened Stack, and boom here's your post.

This is amazing! What a detailed and thoughtful description of your journey. It certainly sounds like you have the dedication and consistency needed to do an Ironman. I write a triathlon blog, Triple Threat Life, so check it out if you’d like to learn more about triathlon and Ironman!

Hey Brittany! Thanks for your kind words. :)

I’ll check out your blog. I am 33 now and I am not sure if I want to do an Ironman because my left foot has plantar fasciitis (i think). But it’s refreshing to hear that I can. πŸ’•

I’ll check out your blog!

Oh yes, a lot of people with all kinds of limitations or issues have done an Ironman. It’s important to be healthy of course, but it’s certainly not a fast endeavor. It’s a consistent, all day thing.

Every word resonated with me. I am very inspired by this journey, and thank you for saying it in such simple words. Also, yes to the article about Hormones controlling us. What is cycle syncing? Going to research on all this. Kudos on this! πŸ’ͺ🏻

Absolutely loved reading this and seeing your growth. Knowing that I’m not alone in finding emotional support through food makes me feel less bad about myself (if that makes any sense). I love the reminder about habits and consistency because I’m starting out as well and on days that I want to give up, I need to keep pushing myself. Reading this inspires me to do better, makes me feel seen ❀️❀️
