As I sat down to write this week's blog, I found myself torn between several topics. Should I write about work, family, or perhaps something about myself?
However, something has been weighing heavily on my mind lately
- my fitness and weight loss journey.
You see, since we lost our son, 2 years ago, my weight has been a constant struggle. The emotional pain I felt led me to neglect my physical health, and now, I weigh more than I ever have. It's affecting me both mentally and physically, and I know I need to make some changes.
In the past, I used to love taking long walks with my family, but lately, I've lacked motivation. On top of that, our schedules rarely align, which makes it even more challenging to make time for exercise. I'm sure many of you can relate to this. You buy all the latest home gym equipment, convinced that this time, you'll use it. But more often than not, it ends up collecting dust in a corner (like my cross trainer) or in a closet (like my power gym and weighted hula hoop).
I've been stuck in this cycle for a while now. I tell myself that I'll start working out next week, but then something comes up, and before I know it, the week is over. It's time for a change. I need to hold myself accountable, and I believe sharing my journey with you all is a great way to do that.
So, I've decided to use my weekly blogs to share my progress and hold myself accountable. I'm hoping that by doing so, I'll find the motivation to make time for exercise and finally dust off that home gym equipment.
I know I'm not the only one struggling with this, so if you're in the same boat, and need an accountability buddy. Get in touch. And if you have any amazing tips that will help me on this journey, I beg you to share them, I need all the help I can get
Thank you for reading, and I look forward to sharing my journey with you all.
