It's a new semester with new classes and a new clinical rotation and we're all overwhelmed. Coming back from break wanting to get my diet back on track and push myself harder than ever in the gym wanting to see big results soon, this is so so stressful. Over break I gained weight from the mass amounts of christmas goodies that I consumed (which was planned). I needed a break not only from school but depriving myself from the good things in life, like christmas cookies - nbd.
However, I'm back and feeling more motivated to create a better me than ever. Instead of creating a New Year Resolution, I've simply decided to create some new health goals that I would like to see accomplished this year.
1. Stay the course no matter how exhausted I am. I know that this is going to be hard. I'm going to have long hours of homework, but I need to make it to the gym. I need to remember that the gym is my happy place, and I will feel so much better after my workout.
2. Better myself mentally and emotionally. This past year was an emotional one, and I was not always strong mentally. I need to become stronger in these aspects, and focus on myself. Mental and emotional health is just as or even more important than physical health.
3. EAT BETTER. I am so horrible at compromising my diet, and eating food that I know will not give me that flat stomach I've been dreaming of. This year will be the year where I see big changes in my body. I need to pound the thought of it not coming easy into my brain and stop eating so many freaking carbs.
Setting goals for myself is how I stay hungry. I'm so competitive with myself and others that they help me stay on track. I am so ready to continue my fitness journey and keep creating a better me each and everyday.
now..... who's with me???
