It's only been a few weeks now since I've woken myself up from a pretty bad dream. I was unemployed, didn't know what I wanted to do later on and had no idea where I was going with my life. I felt like staying home all the time, watching movies and pitying myself.
I don't know what got me up on my feet again but now, I only have one goal in mind: To get in shape and to start enjoying life! I've always been a pessimist but things have to change. My mind was as unhealthy as my body.
Since the 25th of May I've cut down on the sugar, begun running/stretching at night & working in a store that requires me to be up on my feet for 5-8 hours per shift. I know it hasn't been long, but we've all gotta start somewhere, right?
I measure around 5"3 or 5"4 and the last time I weighed myself, around Christmas time, I was weighing in around 120 lbs. Sure it doesn't sound so bad, but have you ever heard of the term 'skinny-fat'? My neck, arms & wrists are healthy if not boney... yet my stomach, hips & thighs beg to differ. The view of my abdomen from a profile angle is like that of a woman about 6 months pregnant. My thighs are like hams! I've never kept to a steady exercise routine & I've always eaten whatever, whenever. I have a fast metabolism but I can't keep counting on it to keep me 'under the 200 line'.
I plan on becoming a new person physically and mentally, with the help of this site, a routine run from time to time, a healthier diet & a normal sleeping schedule.
I've had enough with the bad habbits.
It's time to change!
