After I posted the other day I looked at the post right before this one. How I was making a change, and I thought, well that doesn't look good. I have been here and said that before so what makes this time different.
A little background. In May of last year I joined Extreme Fit Boot camp and LOVED it. Now let me tell you, that first month was HELL for me. I haven 't exercised in a VERY long time so I HURT! But I DID it. I made it through the first month so I signed up for another and another and another. I lost around 20 pounds, just watching what I ate and doing the boot camp. Then I hurt myself. I started having really bad hip pains that would go all the way down to my foot. So I went to the doc and he told me I had sciatica and sent me to physical therapy. That was August.
My physical therapist suggested I give boot camp a rest to recover from my injury. So I did. My plan was to start back once I got better, but I didn't. And guess what, football season started. I started eating bad wasn't exercising, I gained about 15 pounds back. UGH! It makes me so mad just to say that.
I joined the Holiday Survival Camp at Extreme Fit and went like 3 times maybe. I was just "too busy" or it was "too cold". I made it through the Holiday's without gaining any more weight (how I don't know). And I decided at Christmas that I am not making ANY MORE EXCUSES. January I am starting over. It is time for the NEW ME!
I joined Nutrisystem because I have NO SELF CONTROL when it comes to food. I am hoping the system will teach me to be more in control. To eat because I need the fuel, not because it is fun. To control my portions, to make better decisions.
I also signed back up for boot camp and tonight is the first night. I am SO READY! Ready to freeze, ready to fight through the pain, READY!
This is about ME! No one else. I am going to be selfish for a while and that is OK!
