Monday Mailbag 16

by

I took last week off to ‘regather’ my forces and get going again. Now I’m back and ready for action this week, which means Monday Mailbag is back too! I hope you’ll join in and play along.

You know how it works – MM is my tribute to my love of receiving mail (or is it just my loathing of an empty mailbox?).

Every Monday I will post my question for you to answer on your blog. You then come back here and leave a link to where you’ve posted your answer so we can all get to know each other.
Easy peasy. Wanna play?

This week’s question:

I’ve done what I like to call ‘occasional dieting’ for years now, but I first really dedicated myself to getting fit when I got married. (I made a huge step by moving to Australia, but that wasn’t a conscious decision in the area of fitness.) Since then, I have been trying different exercises, diets and healthy habits.

About one and a half years later, there are many things I wish I could go back and tell myself. From little habits to the doctors to see, there are quite a few things I know now that I didn’t know then.

This week, I’m wondering…

If you could go back in time and talk to yourself at the beginning of your fitness journey, what would you tell yourself?

Remember to leave a link to your answer in the comments!
