On many occasions I've set for myself the goal of eating healthier. If it is a temporary goal, I manage to fulfill it.
But as I mentioned in some of my previous recent posts, I'm not 18 anymore and starting fit and healthy has become more of a challenge. I tried eating healthy a few weeks ago and i wasn't able to keep a strict regime and of course I didn't lose any weight.
The thing is, a few days ago I went to the doctor and got some pretty bad news, which means either I change my eating habits and stay active or I'm going to have serious problems.
That's why I creates the account @afitsoul. Get it? Cause I'm a Nomad soul but since this account will be about fitness, then I'm a fit soul. Get it? Yeah I know, it isn't that clever but I like it.
The challenge
The New year is at the next corner and I'm going to take this chance to have a healthier life in 2019 as one of my NY propositions. I know, I'm so basic it hurts, but I don't care.
Take a before picture of yourself and make an announcement post about starting to use Actifit for the #healthier2019 and set some goals for yourself like:
- Losing X amount of kilos or pounds in Y amount of months.
- Growing X% of muscle.
- Losing X percentage of body fat.
These are just examples, the world is yours, set achievable goals for yourself and fulfill them during the next year!
Every Sunday you can make an update post about it using the tag #healthier2019 and I'll be curating those posts. For example, every Sunday I will upload my excercise routine for the next week, my diet, my current weight and body mass and perhaps I'll even upload a video of my excercise routine.
You can also post your @actifit report every day and join their discord channel for extra support and motivation.
So now you know, eat, drink and smoke as much as you want during 2018, because next year, it will be a #healthier2019.
I can't ask you to join a challenge and upload a "before" picture if I'm not balsy enough to do it myself, so here I am, as thumbnail and all, this is how I look right now.
| Metric | Current situation | Goal |
|---|---|---|
| Weight | 90 kilos | 78 Kilos |
| BMI | 28.4 | Below 20 |
| Cholesterol | 252 | Below 200 |
| Triglycerides | 642 | Below 150 |
| Lypids | 1250 | Below 750 |
The goals are to be achieved within 6 months, and then I will strive to mantain them for the rest of the year.
It's always easier to fulfill a goal if you write it down, so here I am, having the Blockchain as witness of this challenge.
