Time to Get Serious Again...

Alrighty...I know it seems like I am always trying to get started again - welcome to what many people struggle with! I am no exception. I have signed up for 4 classes a week once again at work (Circuit Training, Pilates, Yoga and Core Sculpt). I am pushing myself to go to them and am glad I am doing the classes again. I had been sporadic the last few months of 2014.

Now, if I am going to get real, I need to admit that I have lots of work to do on my eating habits. The truth is that as long as that is not where it should be, I will not improve. You cannot outwork a bad diet! I cannot stress that enough - eating horribly will keep all the exercising in the world from giving you the results you are striving for. I am not delusional and sitting here wondering why I am still struggling. The problem is right under my nose (and above the neck). What I am putting into my mouth is not the type of fuel that I should be putting into this body. I can even feel it at some of my workouts. When I eat a good, healthy breakfast, I do much better in class. If I eat something not so good for me, I feel like I am more sluggish and not at my peak performance. This is my wake-up call - I am at 206.4lbs and will never get under 200 if I don't start making some healthier choices. It is time to focus on food! Let's get this going in the right direction! :)
