I started taking care of myself about five years ago this week. I had just went through a divorce during the spring of 2014. I had let myself go. And after a few months, I decided to make a change for the better. I started SLOWLY messing around at the gym in my apartment complex. I felt so uncomfortable. But just after doing that for two weeks, I saw just enough progress to make myself keep going. I started working harder. I started to adjust my nutrition accordingly and started counting calories. After a year, I was down 50lbs.
It’s a loooooong process. I think everyone in here would tell you it’s not something that happens overnight. For me, breaking things down into smaller segments of time, like setting monthly goals, helped me keep on track. When you start to do work with weights, TRACK YOUR WORKOUTS!!!!! I didn’t for the longest time and pretty much was spinning tires in the gym. It makes a huge difference to be able to look at what you’re tracking and be able to have a goal set for each time you walk into the gym. And I just thought that I would share my story today to maybe help someone who’s feeling a little down on themselves or thinks that they’ll never be able to achieve what they want. I’m still personally not there myself, but if I can do it, I know that anyone else who reads this can as well!!!
