Happy Thursday! We are halfway through January and the day here in Calgary is drear, drear, drear... cold and snow, here it comes!!! I am having a hard time staying motivated this week for work and the gym, and it seems like since the end of Christmas holidays, I have been absolutely exhausted!!!
I haven't exactly been slacking on my new years resolution of getting into the best shape of my life, but I have had a really hard time these past few weeks. In preparation for the wedding, I was a health machine... exercising twice a day, eating healthily, and drinking loads of water, and it paid off... i felt fit, i felt strong, and truth be told, went down a few sizes too... unfortunately, the Christmas season of food and travel got the best of me, and i have gone up a full size (so back to my pre-wedding weight and size)
Realizing the only way to fix this was to get back on track, healthy eating and excercise were my top priorities, and have been for the past two and a half weeks... but weight is not coming off, and I am feeling no stronger in my efforts at the gym. Nor have I been able to get out of bed more than twice a week for a before work workout!!!
So, I need to recommitt... i am looking at working with a personal trainer to get the best workout in, and am re-hauling my diet... even though I thought I was "eating healthy", a whole lot of junk food has found its way into my day to day munching!!!
I am also going to try and start logging some serious km (or miles, as the treadmills at the gym log in miles) and recording it on here... I need to be accountable, so I am going to try for 100 miles in the next 6 weeks (goal date February 28) in addition to my regular weights and cardio routine, so I will be posting food and workouts more often to keep me honest!
Till the next post,
L
