Body
I think the most obvious change (and the one I had most sought after) was too my body. After the holidays, I felt miserable with both how I looked and how I felt. I had not been doing anything physical and had consumed more food in a short amount of time than I had done all year. This state of mind is what led me to undertake this journey in the first place.
However, unlike when I was going to the gym, I chose to also completely change my diet. I decided that to completely invest in the program, I needed to quit sabotaging my own results. I gave up on almost all sugars, quit drinking soda, and began monitoring everything that went in to my body. While it is not only more expensive, but also more time consuming, to change my diet, I have found the results to be well worth it.
I have found that in only two months that the changes have been night and day. I have completely lost every bit of weight that I put on during the holidays as well put myself in the best shape I have ever been. I have also found that despite getting up earlier, I have much more energy throughout the day and feel much more alert; I have also added a tremendous amount of flexibility (great for golf). By changing my diet, I have felt great and have had none of the eating issues that I used to have. There have been zero chronic headaches, and I got rid of the "flu" that seemed to plague people for weeks in less than two days.
I could not be happier with the results that I have seen, and I did not expect everything to go as well as it has. It is because of the physical changes that I believe the other significant changes in my life have come to be.
