Today I have received a compliment from someone who didn't know I was working hard to lose weight and that was awesome. What a motivator to be told you LOOK different! That's the goal right? (Kinda) It's half the goal. The goal is to LOOK and FEEL good. To be HEALTHY inside and out. But none the less, it felt good to have an adda-girl without expecting it.
Its nice to see what hard work does! It makes things worth it and gives you that little bit of a push that you need to keep going when you just want to end a little sooner than you should end.
This week I am trying to push just a little harder. I am pushing to track my food better, to drink more water, use heavier weights and really focus on my form for ideal results.
I really am starting to think all this is, is mind over matter.
It is your mind thinking you can do more than or less than you can -
and if you believe it and follow it - that is what you will achieve. Its
all a mind set. So start thinking, YOU CAN DO IT!
When I signed up for my challenge and I decided to start working hard, an hour seemed so long, now I think an hour is nothing! I try to tell myself
"What is an hour of your day for a lifetime of memories
you can have because you are tight and lean and healthy!"
The more you want to succeed the harder you will work! The harder
you work, the better results you will have and that will give you the
motivation to keep you going! (kinda like that book, "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie")
You can do it. I know this because I am doing it - a mom of three under 5 - who is about
80 lbs over weight! I am seeing it in myself and now I know other people see
it in me, because I just got my first non-prompted compliment!
Feel free to make your own MyFitnessPal food diary and join me (DearGym)
on phase 2 of my journey- really tracking what I am eating. I would love the
accountability of your commentskeeping me in check! If you eat poorly and
workout, you wont see huge changes. It just wont happen. I'd love you have
you join me on my journey and work along side you as you begin yours!
