2016: The Year I Let Myself Down

2016 was an awful year for me in retrospect. I don't know how it was so bad, but let's just say I hit rock bottom.

I'm not sure why it was such a bad year, considering I went to Germany for work. But when I look back, I nearly lost everything about my identity.

It's 2017, and I've done more in these first 16 days then I did all last year for weight loss. I also ventured back into snowboarding having lost weight. Weight loss isn't just a gym kind of thing. I did spend quite a bit of time at the gym. Weight loss is about eating right. The gym is about scoping the muscles to one degree or another. For what it's worth, I probably wouldn't have rock abs with my workout even with a solid diet.

I guess what 2016 really lacked was me getting out of the house on the weekends. Especially July. I made a bad excuse for not leaving the house in July. It was over 95 degrees for most of the month. However I didn't try to get out at all. I should have. I look what other people did and I'm envious. I shouldn't be.

I guess I'm just a little disappointed in myself for not giving the extra effort. If I was to put 2016 in a pie, I wouldn't have completed that pie. I would have openings.


So I left this blog a little short.
