The new year has started well for me - joining the gym by work (and going to it!) is feeling really good. At last I feel confident enough in my shoulder to start exercising properly again. Sadly though, I have lost so much strength and a not insignificant amount of fitness in the last six months. My weight has remained stable in absolute terms, but the composition has changed. I'm still 82kg though now I have less muscle and more fat round my tummy.
I've been so down following 2 shoulder dislocations last year, that I pretty much gave up caring about how much I was eating and what it was doing to my body. There were plenty of moments where I was in a 'fuck you, body - you let me down, now I'm letting you down' frame of mind.
I've started on the course back to being fit, strong and flat stomached, fully up for the journey. The bit I am struggling most with is the eating. I've never had a problem being hungry, it really doesn't bother me, but now I am actually 'catching' myself eating randomly (or more) when I don't need to and it is driving me up the wall.
Posting about it will likely help, so 'hi everybody!'
My goals are:
1) To get back to that irritating half-way house between 32 and 34in waist.
2) To reach 90kg whilst conforming to Goal 1
