Dieting is the number one New Year's Resolution, so I am jumping on the bandwagon
I am so unhappy with how I let myself get so out of shape. Two years ago I was boxing, doing cardio, weights and power yoga, then I let some injuries from over doing it get me down and I stopped doing most forms of exercise except LOL working my jaw and right elbow. I wound up gaining over 30 lbs and my fat clothes are to tight. My DH says I now snore, I sometimes feel out of breath just doing normal chores, and I can tell it is effecting my tendency towards varicose veins
I started Atkins yesterday and plan to be very strict for what they call the induction period for the first two to three weeks. Quick loss for me at the beginning will be very motivational. After starting with Atkins I will move towards Weight Watches which is something that is easier to live with it. I also have started back at the gym. Unfortunately for me the Bally's Health Club that I had been going to for over 25 years closed this time last year. The gym is a key part in my weight loss since it has always been an important part of my day both for heath reasons as well as for social interactions. I work from home so there are many days my gym friends would be about the only people except for my husband that I would have personal contact with. I think that is why I spend a lot of time on YT, you all replaced my gym friends and unfortunately helped expand my butt and waistline
LOL to me nothing is as comforting as YT with a side of snack food
I have not yet found a gym I am as comfortable with as I was at Bally's but many of the people at the old place have signed up with Planet Fitness so I am giving that a whirl. This will be the third gym I am trying in the last year, so my fingers are crossed I will like this one.
So is anyone else starting a weight loss program, if so maybe we can offer each other some support and motivation
