Woes of a former dancer

Dear Reader

After much consideration (about two minutes worth), I have decided, quite radically, to totally up-heave my lifestyle.
This includes my fitness, diet, social life and working life.

So, after about seven years of dancing, I made the decision to quit which was a huge surprise to pretty much everyone around me - a decision I will explore further in a separate post.
Since then, I have noticed both my fitness and diet has gone a little crazy, having indulged in all the things I couldn't whilst being a dancer, and realised a radical decline in the amount I actually exercise. Now, it being next  to nothing. When filling out medical forms I am always asked how many times a week I exercise and without hesitation I put FOUR, which is me still being in dancing mode.

My goals?

Fitness

Less of a goal, more a lifestyle choice. Just START DOING MORE. I used to be a pretty good runner, and would go jogging pretty much every evening after school last year in the summer with the dog, which is really something I hope to start again.

Diet

-NO Carbs
-NO Sweets
-NO Dairy

So, I'm basically going to be on vegetables and Quorn for the next few months. Which, ironically, I have no beef with. I like vegetables and quorn. They make me happy. Of course I will be substituting the protein I will be missing out on for other things (I have no clue yet because I suck at research)

Social Life

Make an effort to see my friends more and finally venture out to the terrifying world of nightclubs. They can't be that bad can they?

Working Life

I am currently a waitress but the work is infrequent because I work for my mum's catering company. So, as soon as my dad gets home, I am going to mend up my CV and stroll down to our local pub and enquire after any jobs - even if it's just as a pot wash, I'll take it!

So, that's it ladies and gents(?)

Hopefully I won't fuck up these promises to myself. Having fish & chips tonight as a send off to deliciously fattening food that we all have a guilty pleasure in.

Over and Out
