Years ago I went on a weight loss journey. I had amazing results! I was able to sustain that lifestyle for quite some time. Until 2020 to be exact. In 2020, a lot of things changed for me, as they did for a lot of people. January 1, 2020, my Mom passed away. To say that was a rough start to the year would be an understatement. At that point I had been working as the personal training manager at a local gym and loved what I did. Fast forward to March 2020, we all know what happened then. What began as a 2 week shut down, turned into months. Months turned into...I was not getting my job back. When I realized that, I thought about where life would bring me. I moved, I found a new job, and started over. This meant a huge change in my daily activity. I allowed old habits to resurface and no longer went to the gym.
Long story short, all of the weight came back. I did remain more active, but not to the extent that I had been before 2020 threw my life upside down. This year, I decided I wanted to make those positive changes again. I wanted to fit in my life better, so to speak. So here I am, eating healthier, moving more, and starting to see that scale change. It is a slow process, but I will take it. I am feeling better even after just a month of being more conscious and doing my best to stick to my healthier lifestyle. I have less excuses for moving my body and more reasons to kick myself in the butt to get moving again. What health challenges or weight challenges or life challenges are you facing right now? What can others do to support you? Do you prefer to work through those things in a group or go it alone? There are so many different ways to approach a major life change. I find it very interesting to hear how others approach things.
With all of that said, follow me for what I am calling the Fit Me Journey! We will talk about tips, tricks, and what is working for me and what isn't.
See ya soon!

I need to get back on the wagon too. Hear that echo? That's me saying this for the 100th time in the last year. I had lost over 36# and put it all back on, and then some. I love to bake way too much. I love pasta and bread and all the bad things. Ugh.
I feel this! One small change at a time! You've got this!
