    I wish I knew "perfect form" is a myth. I wasted too much time researching perfect form for lifting and spent too much time feeling intimidated by the notion of perfect form that I stayed out of the gym - when I could have been learning and practicing GOOD FORM.

    That I wasn't lazy and lacking willpower to exercise, my body simply needed more carbs in order for me to 'want' to exercise. And that paleo would be a complete waste of my time and horrible for me.

    I wish I'd known it was possible to use a food diary, a food database, and a trustworthy source of food data, namely, https://ndb.nal.usda.gov/ndb/foods

    I wish I'd known that I love exercise and that it was my wonky brain lying to me that caused me to stop the second I stepped out of the dance studio for the last time. Who knows what might have happened in the last ten years if it weren't for that but oh well.

    It's a habit for life you need to ease into.
