Erins' Breakaway!

A little over 2 months ago, I decided that it was a time for change. I was on a downward spiral path with my weight and my mood and I knew that I am the only one that can change myself. I finally decided to quit bitching and moaning and just do it. So I joined Gold's gym and promptly got started with the gym and personal training.

My goals are:
  • Lose 80 lbs
  • Get some endurance
  • Feel more energy
  • Mental clarity - quit obsessing over myself!
  • Train for USMC mud run
  • Get my nutrition in check

I am currently working hard on these goals. My biggest and hardest goal so far is to keep my nutrition in check. I do very well during the week but the weekends all hell breaks lose and I eat whatever I want and however much of it that I want. I'm not nearly as active on the weekend either.

From here on out I will be keeping tabs in this blog on my progress and how far I am coming along with all aspects of my training. Accountability to myself is paramount and so I have to do something to make myself accountable!

My weekly schedule has been Personal Training on Mondays and Friday with Zumba on Wed. and Thurs. I am hoping to try spinning class - although it scares the living hell out of me! - and stick with that twice a week as well. I need to spring into action and just do it!
