Back again, from a long break!

Hi, I am back again, after a long break! Been back in the gym for two weeks now, starting off slow, not over doing it, easing back into it. I am in it for different reasons than I was before, less superficial now, less for the look and more for the health of it. Yea, I want to get my muscle built back up, but in the long run its more for my health and to maintain a healthy weight; therefore, I am eating healthier too. I am omitting anything, really, although I have omitted fast food and nearly all processed foods. I've dropped a pant size since moving to the south, the goal is to at least drop one more pant size and gain muscle throughout. I will try to do better and keep up on this journey with y'all, it's just tough being a chef and having such an hectic work schedule, but I am settling into a routine slowly, yet settling.

Another Setback...

Yet another setback as occurred in my fitness journey, but I am not deterred and not giving up. My life has become busier, a little more stress, and bit older too; therefore, I only need to find a another way, a new way that works for me. It may be slow and a little at a time, but if that's what it takes then that's what I need to do for now. Since I've not worked out like I once have, I have changed my eating habits. I now lessened my portion size, cut out the fast food, the processed foods, and cut down on the alcohol intake. I get some workouts in, and walking the dog helps too, along with yard work. I've lost some unwanted weight this way as well, and staying healthy. One day at a time, one workout at a time.
