Way Easier to Lose Your Fitness then Weight.
After a fairly long hiatus from the gym, healthy eating and just general taking care of myself I chose to blame the Christmas break .I decided it was time to get the new year off to a healthy start. Strolling in to my first combat class for the year I was excited but nervous at how I’d go, the overly loud and dizzying trance tracks began to blare out and I put on what I can only imagine as a displeasing display to the eyes. I was panting like crazy and any technique I thought I had had failed to show itself leaving me to be an uncoordinated mess.
By the end of the class I had fully realised just how quickly fitness can leave a person even though the journey to get to it was long and tedious, all the christmas food devoured and mulled wine consumed over that holiday period had some how drowned it into non existence.
One can’t be to hard on themselves, as you can’t expect to dine like a king and it have no effect on your behind let alone your entire body. I thought back to the lazy lunches on the deck eating food that I probably wouldn’t get to have for another year and found only happiness not guilt.
Hence why 2015 I’m going to be kinder to myself. Going to stop the self loathing voice I get in my head everytime i reach for something thats a ridiculous amount of calories and remind myself and others that they’re beautiful, even while stuffing there face with cake.
Being healthy doesn’t always mean being skinny.
