When you stumble across your blog lying dormant and unused it gives you a small pang of regret and sadness. Looking back through some of the posts, you see where you’ve come from, where you got to and where you were. Sadly, after 6 months of neglect and doing whatever I wanted without the gym, I got to the point where something needed to change.

Life has it’s way of throwing things at you when you least expect it and, over the past few months, there’s been one or two things come this way that have required more focus and a better me to deal with them. That ‘better me’ hasn’t really been here thoughts I haven’t been looking after myself, let alone those around me. That has to change.

I have enlisted the services of a local PT to assist me on my journey but I know that the hardworking starts the first time I set foot back in the gym. I know that by contacting a PT I haven’t fixed the problem, far from it, I’ve just given myself someone else to let down but I want this. I want to lose weight, get fit, get healthy and get back to being a better me. It won’t happen over night. There’ll be days that I want to give up, days where I eat rubbish and let myself down but at least I’m trying! I have had a body composition test done to find my starting measurements and I intend to rectify the findings over the coming months.
