I've always been overweight. I was meant to be getting married in July, joined a gym for the first time in my life in January and actually started to enjoy going

Started with classes 4x per week which I was rubbish at. I've no coordination and just always felt embarrassed. Found spinning and it was working - I was losing weight, toning up and could leg it up the stairs at work without puffing and panting.

Then covid hit and the gyms closed. I bought a bike and have done some decent rides out with ds BUT I've lost motivation, gained weight and keep putting off my first session back spinning

I'm fatter and more unfit than I was in January and im gutted and angry at myself as I was sorting myself out for the first time in years

Any motivational tips? Anyone in the ssme boat? You can just kick me up the arse if you're passing

I ran a half marathon at the end of February.
I'm doing C25k now.

I did OK in March and April, but my mojo faded by June and without regular osteopath appointments, I siezed up, and I feared further injury.

Time to find my mojo and build back up from the begining.
