Sometimes you have to start again

So I can’t even remember the last time I went on here, and I can’t remember what my weight was at the time. It’s safe to say that I reached a lovely place in my weightloss journey and then it all came crashing down.

However, I won’t be crestfallen or defeated. Sometimes you have to restart things a few times before you succeed. And goodness knows I’ve restarted my weightloss journey a few (million) times. But hey, nobody’s perfect! And if something is worth having, it’s worth fighting for.

So let’s start with today as DAY ONE OF THE REBOOT. I have weighed in and I will henceforth be weighing on Wednesdays…so we shall now rename them Weigh In Wednesdays. Catchy.

So the starting weight is 18 stone. To be honest, I’m still at a -13lb loss since this time last year so I’ve already given myself a head start, right?

I’ve got a couple of weeks off before I start placement again so I was hoping that I would be able to push myself into doing more than one workout a day. Since that plan was made in my little head, I have worked out only once a day (although the plan was only created and envisaged on Saturday and today is Wednesday). Today was the first day of two workouts and MY GOSH PEOPLE I FEEL TIRED. But better to be tired because of exercise than tired because you’re a big, fat, lethargic beast who eats all day. Which is what I was for two weeks of this summer due to a lovely holiday filled with lots of food and wine.

Anyway, my goal is going to be half a stone loss by my birthday (end of October). According to wiifit I need to be averaging -3lbs every two weeks. So I need to get a shimmy on and start making positive choices with my consumption and moving myself around a little more.

Right. In the words of a well-known sports brand, I need to JUST DO IT.
