A few weeks ago, when in spite of being consistent with my workouts (six days a week), I wasn't all too surprised to look in the mirror and see the effects this had on the shape of my body. Disappointed yes, surprised no. So, I set out to fix that and did.
Somehow in spite of the reflection in the mirror, I had managed to maintain below my goal weight. However, right after Christmas I even saw that creep up and was a bit over a pound over my goal weight. That may not seem like a lot, but over the course of the aforementioned time, it was a gain of nearly ten pounds from the lowest weight I have been since I began this journey. I set out to fix that too and in one week I managed to lose 3.4#, simply by tightening up my nutrition and I even had my regular date night cheat meal.
Why am I sharing this? Because the former, frustrated me would have simply given up yet again. The new and improved, healthy me takes control and changes things. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, expecting different results. My new definition of insanity, is now the name of a fitness program and changing what isn't working.
Because of my slip ups, I am not where I want to be physically, but I am back on track and on my way to where I visualize myself. As long as I am making progress, I am happy.
