While the progress sounded slow until now, I’m starting to see progress. I think the weight on the scale don’t say it all. I also think that fat is getting burnt at a much higher rate, and that it will show on the scale. As the walk doesn’t cause any pain, I guess the body is done with its adaptation for this workout, and that I have adapt to the diet too.
My first conclusion would be to say, in the first 1-2 week, on regular workout, the body and mind adapt. This phase done, progress start to show up.
My second conclusion would be during long walk, the body learn to burn energy from the fat storage, much like in a diet.
Finally, my third conclusion is that the results depends on many factors, such as the starting weight, global health condition, past life style, etc, and that everybody will see different progress at different point in time. For me, it was a slow start, and traction seems to happen. I just feel it.
To confirm those 3 assumptions, I will continue this current lifestyle, especially now I feel things are changing.
I also see 1 month as a body month, not a human month. Human and body time are different, and it’s not because quick results are always expected, that the body have or will to produce the results we expect in the timeframe we expect.
My guess is as long as we do it right, meaning, progressive and regular workout and healthy balanced diet, time (body) will make it happen, sooner or later.
As time goes, we also learn our body, adapt to workout and diet, naturally and easily becoming able to improve things. What seemed healthy on day 1, a good workout, etc appear differently as time goes. Also, as the processus is progressive, it goes a long way: if I was eating the way I do today starting from day 1, it would have been a bigger jump compare to a progressive change, and as such, a more difficult change not necessarily a healthy one. The things is to listen to its body, and learn what hunger means for example. And to react to that signal, and not for example to an emotional one for example. Obviously, eating healthy and avoiding carbs as the cause hunger and are addictive.
In my case, I removed the platzli and I’m eating mostly salad, which I found delicious and able to feel full. There is also the time frame to eat, the little change we put on the diet, between 2 days, listening to what the body feel to eat.
Of course, time will come soon to change the workout routine, hitting the gym. I wouldn’t be able to do these long walk on week day as I can do today, but this one month incubation period will have allow to adapt (body, mind, diet, workout, fitness, learning and discovering preferences and defining new objectives) and to become aware and to evolve in the right direction, higher, better.
