I've always been out of shape, and this year definitely made it worse (ty corona).
I gained about 20 lbs due to quarantine and just mindless eating, which led to an unhealthier body image and insecurity that I thought I had left behind in high school. I would burst into tears seeing myself in the mirror, and have avoided photos this whole year.
I decided I had enough, and I joined a new gym in October and they had a 30 day challenge, and I can't believe it but I WON FIRST PLACE! The weights felt easier to lift, and I shaved 4 minutes off of my total time.
I still have a ways to go on my weight loss but I'm proud of myself for making it this far! To top it off, I ran the fastest mile of my life this morning!
So to anyone who's feeling down about their fitness/health this year, keep going and remember that you're not alone but you can always improve! consistency is everything!! If I can do it EVERYONE CAN!!
