Sorry for letting you down with that last one pal, I was hit by a suicidal depression, which sorta developed over days and peaked out. Everything went haywire. Only now am getting back to reality(Yes, I pulled out of everything and am back only now). I hope things went really well back then, (two months ago, am terribly sorry for bailing out). I am back though.
 
I am just trying to start again. I am sorry for my previous relapse into my old lifestyle. I really did not give a damn about reformation after I relapsed. My excuse was that I was into a suicidal depression and that sucked the energy out of me. ( I was escaping normal depression with my workout back then, but a sudden fall pulled me in deeply, this might really sound superficial, but it is true.). I am back now.

1. Starting my 2 hour jump rope workout from now on. Today on. It is already 6pm here at my place, I just will do as much as I can for the day. From tomorrow, I should start doing 2 hours per day, solid.
2. Will start Sugar abstinence from now on. Will log every food item that I had which had considerable sugar content (other than plain sugar).

Starting back again from now. Wish me luck.
Will give it my best this time for sure. I have fallen back a considerable amount of time but not this one. Will log progress everyday, through out the day.
 
Wow Kal, I'm so sorry to hear you've had such a horrible time of things. There's no need to apologize to anyone about what happened. You need to take care of yourself physically, mentally, and emotionally before anything else. The challenges here are just for fun and bragging rights so please don't feel that you're letting anyone down.

I hope you're on your way to a brighter and happier future. Please don't hesitate to vent here if/when you need additional support.

That is really comforting. I really believe all of those bad times are over me. (The mechanism is still in place, I just am not gonna go there again). I am emotionally pretty stable. I will make it this time with the workouts and the dieting properly. Will give an update after today's work out probably tonight.

Side note: Your display pic looks damn cute/hot this time around, (new or is it the same one). :D
 
A little over 15 minutes of cardio done. It started itching on my chest/stomach and thighs from the sheer flow of blood. Again, after two or so months. I just had to stop for a while. Will try again, if it is too uncomfortable I will start tomorrow morning first thing. (it is already 10pm).
 
Hey Kal-el, welcome back.

Don't feel as if you owe an apology to anybody. You really did nothing wrong and there is nothing to apologize for.

Just make sure you take care of your mental health, it as as important as physical health.

I hope you have a great week and wish you the best for 2014. You take care of yourself now.
 
That is so sweet of you, thanks. I am mentally fine now, so am back in the game. Wish you a good 2014 as well.
 
Haha... very sweet of you thanks! Makes me blush a little bit. It's not new, I'd say probably for the past 2 months or so. :)
 
Half hour of jump rope done today.

Will try to restart, it is already late in the night, but I will try. I just should try and reach the daily target of two hours like before. I used to breakdown the two hours into little bits and finish them off before. I don't think that is effective now. I want to do it at one go or break them into just two halves. I don't know. I really have to get there.
 
Did an hour of workout today, with 20 yesterday and 20 the day before. I don't know if this is because of starting some heavy stuff or what, but I feel tired. I am resting good. I should ease into this routine quite smoothly. Two hours last time was after a lot of initial preparations. I am finding it hard now. I will try and do an hour or 40 minutes and try to get good at it. Then I will go for higher numbers. I think I should start doing heavy intensity jump rope stuff, even 40 minutes would save a lot of effort and time. Doing 2 hours in moderate pace could get really boring as fuck, but I think I will feel pretty okay with 40 minutes of high intensity. I will try that next time.
 
Okay, Again, after a relapse, I wanted to start the process of two hours of jumping rope again. After multiple failures, here is another start.

I started on 6th of March, So far I have not been so consistent with two hours per day, but this is my track record for the past 11 days. I just felt the need to record this here, as I have been recording my every attempt at this.

Yeah, I am loving it though. Feeling really better than ever. I just need to go on like this. Good to see you too Quercus. Hope the weight loss challenge is still going on in some form, like what we had back then around August/September of last year.

70 minutes at one stretch at one go. I don't know why am not able to make it a straight two hours. That was refreshing. Will do the rest of 50 mins down the day.

Update 2,

50 minutes of jump rope done.

Thanks for reading.

60 minutes at one stretch. Had the chance to counter some hardcore mind games. Time just passes by, just like that. That is the one comforting factor in all of these hardships. No matter what you do, how hard you do, time is on your side if you need to get through with things quickly and effectively. You see that watch and it just keeps ticking and before you know it, you loose hours.
The work out was pretty refreshing. One more hour to go, will do it down the day.

Update 2,

Second session of 60 minutes of jump rope done.

Thanks for reading.
