On the work front, things have been absolutely crazy busy, so i sadly didnt have much time to put aside to write the blog every day.
We're nearly done with week 6 and that means that we only have 2 weeks left.
Having said that, if i go back and read posts written two weeks into the challenge, i see that i already started noticing changes in my body within the first two weeks, so needless to say that the last two weeks will be as crucial to change than any other week of this challenge.
But having said that, even though we'll be submitting final results in two weeks' time, i dont think that this journey will end there.
I dont think that I will go back to my old ways. There will be no couch-potato business going on. No bad eating habits, no skipping gym sessions...
There will be more Warrior Races and more Newspaper stories!
More Sleek Geeking. More eating clean and training dirty!
What i like most about what i've learned through this Sleek Geek journey, is that THIS is a true life-style thing. It's sustainable - unlike programs like Body for Life etc.
About 6 years ago, i tried out a 12-week Body for Life course but found that it was too restrictive. I couldn't live like that. It was not sustainable at all. I got angry and at the end of it all, i finished the 12-week program and went back to my old ways.
Not only did the Sleek Geek challenge seem more doable, more sustainable, more fun - but also the sense of community that i got from fellow Sleek Geekers through Facebook and Twitter just made it so much more worth it.
Everyone sharing their stories, giving advice, motivating each other and introducing me to new things like Paleo or the Tissue Salts when i had a cold... little things like that, made a huge difference.
To those who are in later Heats, stick it out!
It's all worth it!
It's better to train hard and be uncomfortable for an hour a day than to be overweight and uncomfortable for the rest of your life.
Happy Easter!
