Every year, I mark in my agenda a list of things I would like to do and sadly, at the end of every year, I usually see that more than half are not accomplished. \u00a0At the top of my list of things that never seems to get accomplished is “Exercise more, lose weight and get rid of the clothes you do not wear”. \u00a0Why is that, I wonder?<\/p>\n

If someone phoned me right now and said let's go to the gym, I would find that I HATE MY CURRENT WORKOUT CLOTHES. \u00a0<\/strong>This is\u00a0not because they are ugly clothes, but because they are all the wrong size. \u00a0I'm ashamed to admit that I purchased the wrong size on purpose — in a smaller size, of course– because I was sure that any day now I was going to wake up and suddenly be the size my gym clothes actually are. \u00a0Sure thing right…<\/p>\n

Well, I have had these same thoughts\u00a0for the last 17 years, and this year I am determined to change that. \u00a0My main motivation is –yes, you guessed it– health. \u00a0I sit at my desk for far too long in front of the computer and am perpetually tired. \u00a0I constantly wish for more energy so I could accomplish all that I set out to do.<\/p>\n

However, wishing alone is not going to get me there, nor is blaming my wardrobe for my lack of enthusiasm and motivation to hit the gym. \u00a0My solution? I am going to design a workout wardrobe that will make me feel comfortable at the gym without making me depressed about the roll around my waist.<\/p>\n

I have put a short list of the things I will be working on and sharing with you over the coming year. \u00a0You'll see that there is a variety of different garments in this new workout wardrobe mainly because I get bored with the same routine and need to change the venue for exercising. \u00a0The design of these items will be targeted at loose-fitting tops and pants at the beginning progressing as the days get warmer into more fitted workout outfits. \u00a0Here's what we'll be working on:<\/p>\n
