So I got myself into the gym this morning (yay!) The place was PACKED! I know there's always a surge of people around the beginning of the year but my gym is enormous and I couldn't believe how many people were there at 9 am. Don't they work! haha. Maybe they all work second shift like me.
Anyhoo that wasn't the grumbling/whiny part, that part comes now. I haven't been to the gym or worked out in any form in four and a half months. That is the longest hiatus I've ever taken and I'm so angry at myself. Any semblance of fitness I used to have is totally gone. All I could do is walk on the treadmill with a slight incline at 3.5 mph for 45 minutes. So discouraging, I used to be able to jog some and do a 12 minute mile and now I'm up to 17.5 min per mile?! Sheesh.
I'm trying to stay positive and tell myself that at least I'm went and at least I'm starting again and all that but it's really hard. I'm so down about everything right now. I've gained 20 lbs. in the past 4 months and although I'm still down from my all time high it seems so insignificant!
To end the post on a good note I did have a healthy breakfast of 2 eggs covered in pico de gallo, nutritional yeast, a slice of fat free cheese all piled up on a slice of whole grain toast.
