Weigh In - 30th July

Despite my best intentions, the scales went up again....I only have myself to blame as I ate very badly and skipped a few gym sessions. I'm fighting a loosing battle between wanting to get fit this summer and wanting to enjoy it with food and friends. I'm beginning to feel my want to get fit winning though with the possibility of a dance job in October keeping me motivated. I've found a picture of me from when I was at my skinniest as well which I'm going to keep close for added motivation. I was a lot more body-confident then, it'd be nice to get back there.

It's not guaranteed yet that I'll be performing but if I am I'll need to be in good shape as it's a 50 minute performance with costume changes to 5 different decades worth of music. It sounds great fun but I have to prove I can keep up so the hard work is going to have to really start next week.

To get there I'm looking at my options for which gym classes I have to pick from over the next few weeks and sign up to these on top of my normal gym routines and dance classes, and I'm going to make sure I do at least one purely strength session also. I need to get back into the habit of doing my ab exercises before bed each day too.

So that's the plan for going forward. Focus on getting better and not on eating.
