Changing for Good

I was going back in My Fitness Pal and exactly one year ago today I weighed the same that I weighed last week. I had lost almost 10 lbs in August and September of last year, but have gained and maintained that weight since then. It's disappointing that the last year has been pointless in terms of my health. I still went to the gym pretty regularly but with no drive and no heart in it, I was just going through the motions. I am paying for a better gym now because my health is worth it. I am worth it. I will use that gym to my full potential. 

Here are my new goals:

1) Continue with the StrongLifts 5x5 program to build muscle and strength. 2) Go to Zumba every Tuesday because I love Zumba and it's great cardio. 3) Over the weekend, if Jeff and I don't do something physical (hike, walk, etc) participate in one of the fitness classes or go swimming at the gym. 4) Continue to track my food to keep me accountable for what I'm putting in my body.

Oh does it feel so good to be in control of my health again. Not that I ever really lost the long term focus, but for a bit there I wasn't giving it all in my workouts and I wasn't tracking calories/macros. I just joined a new gym and have started weight lifting. I'm excited about the program I'm setting up for myself and am looking forward to getting stronger!

Last week: 198.4 lbs This week: 197.6 lbs
