Reblog if you are a fitblr who has had to start their journey over more than once

I want to show people who are new to this that it is okay to fail and that doesn’t define you.

Restarted more times this year than I would like to admit

[fatgirlgetsfitatlast]

So many times!

[foodandfitnessforever]

I have been trying to restart my journey for almost a year now and I just keep slipping up. But this past weekend my mom and best friend both said the most encouraging words to me and now I feel like I can actually get back to where I was junior and senior year of high school. Freshman year and first semester sophomore year of college have killed me, but second semester is going to be a period of awesome transformation. We all fall off the wagon. The important thing is to get back on.

Finally in the 150s

Although I rarely post, I wanted to announce that I am finally in the 150s! 

Today’s weigh in was 158.6 pounds, which was to a bit of a shock since I've been sitting around 160-2 pounds for the last few weeks, and I was starting to think I’d be stuck there FOREVER. 

I’m very pleased. I’m hoping that I can least get to 154 (11st) by the end of the year.

I forgot to update, but I did my longest run on Wednesday; running from work via Regent's Canal. I got as far as 13 km before giving up and then I walked the rest of the 3km journey home. Yesterday I also brought a bike. I don't think I'll be riding to work as I'm far to scared to even think about riding on the streets of London. I'll just stick to parks and stuff.

Felt like exploring today, so I did the Better Haringey Trail walk, which is basically a walking route around the borough of Haringey in London. 

I did the shorter route, but I didn't finish it. But to be fair, I walked for about 2.5 hours and did 17,000+ steps according to my fitbit.

Back into the 160s

Hoping this time round I can hope into the 150s.

dear people who walk up two steps at a time on the stairs: what do you need to prove

[craftystartsover]

Don’t need to prove anything, it’s just sometimes quicker :D

[craftystartsover]

I was aiming to run 10km today, but I just didn't have it in me. I went as far as a could before absolutely giving up :(

[craftystartsover]

It been four weeks since I began crafty start over version 1,000,000+

I ran home today from work and it felt great. I can feel my body getting stronger/returning to it’s peak. 

Looking forward to the next four weeks.
