So, for those who may have spent time reading my ramblings before you may notice that all my previous posts have been removed.
Not for any reason other than what i am about to share.
I recently joined the michelle bridges 12 week body transformation (MB 12WBT) and there are many reasons why.
for awhile now i have felt as though my body was not my own, that i was stuck in someone else’s body and it was torture. Only recently have i been able to see through the cloud of denial and finally be honest with myself.
6 days ago i completed one of the pre-season tasks for the MB 12WBT which was all about writing down the excuses you use every day to get out of exercising/ eating right and it was very confronting and a very eye opening experience.
I honestly never thought i was in denial, i honestly felt these things i was thinking and it took a video blog and a pre season task that so many other men and woman are doing to snap me out of this downward spiral.
my list of excuses was not a long one, but they basically covered everything and would not allow me to go and do the things i need to in order to get back to the body i know i should be and that i want to be.
i used excuses like
– I am too big
– It hurts to exercise
– I am always so tired
– I work too much so i have no time
4 excuses that have basically been ruining my quality of life!
Dont get me wrong, there are so many things about my life that i love
– my job
– my family
– my friends
– my job, my job , my job! lol
I really do love my job and all the experiences it gives me, but still my quality of life could be so much better.
I am at the point now, where i feel uncomfortable going out, i always think that when i am at a restaurant or super market that people are judging me for whats on my plate or in the shopping trolley.
I am always looking over my shoulder thinking that everyone is judging me and any time i hear someone laughing, i think they are laughing at me.
Thats really no way to live! It is a horrible thing to feel this way, but i honestly never knew/ realised i was doing these things until i was forced to write down my excuses.
one small little task has opened my eyes to what i am doing to myself. Its not healthy.
So this post marks the beginning of my new life! Its time for me to take charge, i am 27 years old and unfortunately not getting any younger so its time to change my life permanently.
I cant go back to my 24 year old body but i can be the me i want to be and that i know i am.
So here it goes! Wish me Luck!! 🙂
