#losing weight
I thought that having an eating disorder meant that you would lose weight. I am literally going insane over a plateaued weight.
I can’t remember the last time I felt this alone
I’m getting bad again. And unlike every other time, when I’ve sought out help,
This time I’m just letting it infest me.
I want to lose weight. No matter what. I want to feel numb, because I have been stuck in a rut of feeling too much for too long.
Getting lost in myself has never hurt so much.
It is the NEW YEAR and for many people continuing or starting on body goals has commenced.
I took a break this festive from the fitness and had fatigued my body from the travel so I decided to start mid January.
I had to learn some lessons along the way on what I need to carry in my gym kit and general rules when gyming to get the most of my 45min to 1 hour training session.
Whether you choose a local community running club, Zumba, a gym or a personal coach or trainer there are some non negotiable entitities you need to carry. As well what you MUST do as well.
MUST DO
1. A gym towel and water bottle are needed to be carried at all times. And also a tracksuit Jacket in case of weather changes.
2. Cellphone should always be untouched or on silent in a gym session. Do not get tempted to read messages or overshare your gym time by yourself. Get with it. Make sure it is safe from water or any damage.
3. Never ever carry junk food with you to the gym. People hate that ish.
MUST CARRY
1. Outdoor is a face cream and SPF sunscreen for the outdoors. A cap, visor helps stop sunburn.
2. Gym gloves, because weight training is better that way.
3. Deodrant. I choose mens deo because of the strong sweat smell. Fitness Planet gym insists one ato use their gym they need perfume and deodrant.
4. Your bathing equipment towels lotion and slippers to take a shower at the gym before you head out. Best to always wash off the grime and sweat. Carry easy change of clothes.
FINAL TIP
Arrange your items in easy order before you sleep or head out to make sure you do not forget to wear all items.
Wash gym clothes soon after usage so they do not pile into a stinky mess and leave your clothes with a sweaty stench.
Show up and Pump it up at the gym
Happy Exercise

What MUST HAVE and need in your gym kit It is the NEW YEAR and for many people continuing or starting on body goals has commenced.After a rough month of sickness, chronic illness, and the death of our business owner and boss I had a 5 pound weight gain. It kills me to have to write it down especially after a plateau last month. I had to add this sticker to my journal to remind myself that weight loss is a journey and I will make it to my goal!
CrossFit
Do any of you heavier (280ish pounds plus) people do CrossFit? One of my friends invited me to go to CrossFit with them this week but I’m scared that I am still too heavy and out of shape. They are super supportive but I’m still hesitant. Help??
