Round is a shape

This post is about keeping fit / losing weight / eating healthily, as I am 'embarking on a journey' of my own to combat my weight.

I wouldn't (like to) say that I'm fat. I don't eat very well and usually a lot. Like a lot of people I am worried about my weight. Since I've stopped dancing, which kept me in shape despite my bad eating habits, I've put on weight - about a stone. So I am not feeling too great about my body and my shape, although I appreciate it and I am comfortable as myself.

So, I decided to get off my arse, do some exercise and start sorting out my eating habits! I've not lost weight so far (3 weeks) from exercising 3-4 times a week intensely, but I have lost 3 inches off my waist which I am over the moon about. I've ditched the cans of coke for water, the cakes for pears and bananas and trying not to snack. 

My point is, if I can do it, you can! 

It will be hard. Sometimes you'll want to quit. No one else can do it apart from yourself. Its okay to go to classes/gym and work hard, but you must push yourself past the boundaries of your body and your mind. Find the special place, the place where nothing is more important than getting through these last 10 sit ups. For me, I think about being in my bikini on the beach and not having to breathe in all the time :) 

and remember this: The more you suck it up now, the less you have to suck it in later :)

There are lots of support things online and I am always here for tips or advice :)
