I appreciate your input![]()
I think you two are right, I lack new goals or challenges. Until recently I always had something that I wanted to achieve, there was a mountain that I couldn't climb with the bike or I wanted to be able to run this whole round near my home without having to walk. Now that I am able to do this things, and not so limited by my body anymore, maybe just reaching a weight somewhere around 130 just isn't enough of a goal to keep me motivated.
It may sound strange but it also gets harder the easier it gets - I have the feeling that I have to do more and invest more and more time to get enough out of my workouts to keep losing weight. It's a bit scary![]()
I had one recently. It seems that I am a very healthy person. Not that I am complaining, but physical reasons for the very slow weight loss would have been an explanation at least. My tsh-level (tyroid) was high but within the "normal" margins (margins here in Europe are wider from what I read).
That said, maybe it's time for a physical exam, just to rule out any physical reasons.
I have thought about adding weight training. It will be something new and exciting and I think you are right that I need this kind of workouts atm. I planned to sign in at a Fitness center when the weather gets colder here (in about a month). But maybe I will find something that I can add in right now... I don't have any weights at home but maybe I can find some core workouts that don't need weights.
And after reading your post I did go out and did the 5k round![]()
