No, I can’t run on it, but I can be inspired by people like Sam, Suzi and Sheryl, who encourage me to push myself a little farther down the road.
No, there aren’t any exercises I can do with it (well, I’m sure MizFit has a vlog somewhere showing the proper form for laptop curls), but it’s the place I go for motivation and encouragement.
I don’t use my laptop for a plate (well… not all the time at least), but it helps me stay focused on what I’m doing and where I’m going. It helps me find new healthy recipes and arms me with nutritional information.
It keeps me connected to people who share my ambitions and struggles, who (for some strange reason) seem to care about my troubles and my triumphs.
I may spend a little too much of my time behind the wheel of my blog, but I know that it’s helped me stay on the road to where I want to go.
I am blogging my ass off over here.
And I’m loving every minute of it.
I agree most certainly! My laptop is one of my most prized tools in my tool bag for this journey! And a little more...my smart phone. I struggle during the day at work each and every day. MY worse place to be and my biggest trouble spot with this journey BUT I pop into my blog world to help get me through those days. Right now, it is the ONLY thing that is helping to keep me on track.
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing the support we get from some of these people. You can do this Jack, now go kick some Jack Sh*t A$$!
ReplyDeleteI wholeheartedly agree. I admit blogging to help myself get healthy physically and mentally was only one of my excuses for splurging on a MacBook pro, but it is incredible what it has brought me; support, advice, encouragement, understanding and I really don't feel so isolated in my journey any more!
ReplyDeleteOutside of the amazing support this community offers,are blogs are like accountability partners. Love it
ReplyDeleteTechnology really does help in the fat fight! I'm glad you are being inspired in return for all the support you give us!
ReplyDeleteWe love the fact that you're blogging your ass off too!
ReplyDeleteOther people are so inspirational (as are you!)
ReplyDeleteI agree, others inspire me. Though through this journey, I am spending less and less time with my laptop!
ReplyDeleteYou have an award on my blog!

An iMac apple a day keeps the fatness away.
ReplyDeletefer sure, Miz must have that in the archives! No doubt. :D
Totally agree. Never been this successful before, never blogged before. Coincidence? I think not.
ReplyDeletetry doing squats whilst on the laptop - even better :p
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work. I just use my laptop as a coaster half the time.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely true! Great post, Jack!
ReplyDeleteI love my laptop because it allows me to blog and read blogs like yours. It's brilliant!
