wow. Feels good to actually come clean and say that. My freshmen year of college I stopped working out and starting eating/drinking crap. I had always grown up eating very healthy (My mom has Juvenille Diabetes so she didn't keep sweets or cokes in the house). I didn't think I was eating particullarly healthy, it was just what I knew. And since the 7th grade I had played all kinds of sports.
Well with all that freedom I gained weight...alot of weight. I had some bad influences in my life and wasn't caring about myself.
Last August I started attending spin classes and fell in love. And even more recently (in May) I started doing Muscle Pump classes and I'm now hooked. Ive dropped 2 sizes and I'm working on more.
I don't ever want to go back to that weight.
I'm not at my goal yet and I still make mistakes and skip workouts but I'm much happier with the way I look and feel.
(And that feeling is magnified when someone tells me how great I look).
I'm going to my consultation for CrossFit next week and hopefully I won't be too scared to join.
But isn't that what this whole journey is about?
Putting myself in "scary" situations...if it was all about being comfortable then I wouldn't have changed.
