I used to believe workout programs and nutrition plans were not for me. I didn’t like following a calendar or tracking what I ate. I spent years believing I was doing great on my own, and that the only missing link was a secret pill or drink that I just clicked “purchase” for.
I wouldn’t you know what happened when I finally got out of my own way? I got results! I leaned in and embraced the challenge, rather than looking at following a plan as a road block I was trying to get around. I finally say yes to getting out of my comfort zone. I said yes to screwing up, yet showing up the next day ready to try again.
This not only is the first time I’ve made it through week 1… This is my second time going through this program! Programs are all of a sudden natural to me now! I found a nutrition program I LOVE because it is easy to track and focuses on clean, balanced eating.
I am falling in love with myself again… I am feeling strong and powerful, especially when I bust out an extra rep from the round before. I am feeling energetic and light when I follow my meal plan, and in control when I allow myself a treat.
You may not see a lot of physical change hereโฆ or heck, you may even think I look puffier in the second pic! ๐โ๐ฎ ๐ฃ๐ญ๐ข๐ฎ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ช๐ต ๐ฐ๐ฏ ๐ข๐ญ๐ญ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ท๐ฆ๐จ๐จ๐ช๐ฆ๐ด ๐โ๐ท๐ฆ ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฏ ๐ฆ๐ข๐ต๐ช๐ฏ๐จ. ๐ค But oh my, how i am already ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐น๐ถ๐ป๐ด so much better! Hello energy! ๐๐ผ โฃ

And honestlyโฆ if there was a huge physical change after just one week, that probably means Iโm following a system that isnโt super healthy, wonโt give me lasting results, and isnโt teaching me a way of life. Because you can bet I still ate burgers, popcorn, dessert, and beers all this last week, cause Iโm focusing on longevity here! ๐ปโฃ

The tricky part with taking small steps is physical progress wonโt show up in one week, or sometimes even one month. But what if you showed up for yourself ๐ค๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ด๐ช๐ด๐ต๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต๐ญ๐บ, regardless if at the beginning the progress was invisible? Imagine where youโd be six months from now, one year from now, or even five years from now?! Thatโs the longevity Iโm shooting for! โฃ
