Can you see that shirt I’m wearing? Apart from it being a very nice Ralph Lauren shirt, bought in the January sales may I add, it’s a size large UK.<\/p>\n
Nothing special about that you may think. Well, it is to me as my usual size is (or used to be) an XXL or sometimes XXXL. In fact, the last time I got into a size L was about 25 years ago.<\/p>\n
Being 6:2, I can get away with being a fat Ba****d more than others, but the truth is I’ve battled with my weight for over 25 years, and anyone who is in the line of business I am in can relate to how unhealthy it can be. We sit on our arses all day and all of a sudden we become fat.<\/p>\n
And that’s when we realise we need to do something…<\/p>\n
Believe me, over the years I’ve tried it all, I’ve spent thousands on keep fit ‘stuff’ and tried just about every eating plan or diet there is, but in April 2019 something clicked.<\/p>\n
I can’t even explain what happened but I’d had enough, I was sick of being a fatty and as I was approaching 50 I knew I had to do something as the weight was going in one direction. UP!<\/p>\n
That’s when I discovered Keto, I researched, researched some more, took in what I was getting taught from the experts, and found myself following a low carb diet.<\/p>\n
Nothing too serious, for anyone who knows Keto I am doing it Dirty.<\/p>\n
BUT IT WORKED…<\/p>\n
In the first 2 months, I lost about a stone and this was with zero exercise. Once I saw the weight loss start to happen I wanted to take it further, so since November 2019, I’ve been taking serious care of my fitness as well by doing a lot of cardio.<\/p>\n
The result is fitting into a size large shirt in the first month of the decade.<\/p>\n
So where am I going with this? Well apart from seeing my health improve vastly, I’m seeing my business improve as well. Believe me, they go hand in hand. (Notice how ‘most’ successful entrepreneurs take care of their health?)<\/p>\n
So! Going into 2020:-<\/p>\n
# I am more focused.
\n# I have more energy.
\n# I am more a lot more confident in myself, hence this post.<\/p>\n
Also, notice how I didn’t announce this? That’s not me, if that’s you that’s fine. For me personally, I only had to prove this to myself. But let me ask you? How are your New Year resolutions going so far? Hopefully, are you are on track? If not we are only 2 weeks into a new decade and maybe now is the time to ‘click’ and make it happen.<\/p>\n
That’s all I have, hopefully, it inspires you.<\/p>\n
