Things I have learnt on my gym journey

I had a bit of a break on the holidays, I didn’t follow my meal plan and had a few weeks of the gym.

I had a break and had food delivered.

I also had a drink, which I had not had for about 8 months.

How did I feel, when I wasn’t eating properly and not training?

Well, it was an experience.

I felt happy in the moment, I also felt lethargic, I didn’t seem to like how I was feeling.

Anxiety began to arise in me and I was concerned that I would feel like I did this time last year.

I didn’t want to relive that time again.

I reached out to my personal trainer and got back into the gym.

We had a session where he assured me that it is okay to go of your meal plan, it is okay to have a break from going to the gym.

I knew this myself but I needed to hear this.

I needed to know that I hadn’t wrecked my journey or my goal.

My goal is still possible and all I needed was to get back on track.

So, I did.

It is now week 6 and I am back on my journey.

I am back on my meal plan and am training 5 mornings a week at the gym.

I love the way I am feeling now, I am happier.

What have I learnt on my journey so far-

I am really loving this journey and cannot wait to see what happens this year.

It’s an adventure that I am really enjoying at the moment.

Will share more soon.
