Day 80... • Then & Now... as I get ready to go to bed for the last time as a 39yr old I have been thinking about my life since turning 30 • I have lost some stuff and some people and I have gained some stuff and some people but one of the biggest changes within me in the last 10yrs is my sense of self, purpose and health • 10yrs ago I had very little sense of self, I was someone’s sister, someone’s daughter, a singer in the church a reliable and loyal friend but I didn’t really know me in my 20s I existed like everyone else did and because I merely existed I had no real sense of purpose and I didn’t really take my health super seriously despite making more positive efforts in that direction... • Thankfully that did NOT spill into my 30s!!! • In my 30s I have taken charge of my life, I am still all of those identifying adjectives but the difference between then and now is that I own them, I take pride in them, I embrace them and use them to help me in defining my purpose • The biggest thing really to change is my ownership of and responsibility for my health!!! When I look at these pics so much is different and for that I am truly grateful and more motivated than ever to continue on in #gettingbacktoabetterme!!! • Thank you everyone for your love and support you along with these revelations propel me to #DoTheDo and do it well... 40 here I come!!! • • #gettingbacktoabetterme #reversingthebiggirl #workingmyselfwell #walkingmyselfwell #health #fitness #healthjourneyblog #healthjourneyblogger #dothedo #candaceandkira18k #gettinitdone #18000pushups #18000pushupchallenge #18000pushupsinayear #50pushupsaday #beeling40 #bekindtoyourself #anytimefitness #anytimefitnessaustralia #anytimefitnesstheshire #anytimefitnesscaringbah #centennialparklands #smartfoodchoices #summersalads #lowcarb #highprotein #dontbeafraidtorest #family #qualitytime

Day 30... • YOU ARE STRONG!!! • At the moment I know that there are a few people in my remarkable community of encouragers who are going through stuff right now • So this post isn’t about me, it’s not about the #healthjourney, it’s not about process • It IS about YOU!!! The YOU that can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel, the YOU that feels so depleted that continuation seems pointless. It IS about YOU!!! • YOU’VE GOT THIS!!! YOU ARE A M A Z I N G!!! YOU are NOT alone!!! YOU are CAPABLE of MORE that what you ever thought possible!!! YOU have GREAT people BEHIND you and if you feel like you don’t... you’ve got me!!! • YOU can DO THE DO!!!! • #gettingbacktoabetterme #reversingthebiggirl #workingmyselfwell #walkingmyselfwell #health #fitness #healthjourneyblog #healthjourneyblogger #candaceandkira18k #gettinitdone #18000pushups #18000pushupchallenge #18000pushupsinayear #50pushupsaday #beeling40 #bekindtoyourself #anytimefitness #anytimefitnessaustralia #anytimefitnesstheshire #anytimefitnesscaringbah #centennialparklands #smartfoodchoices #summersalads #lowcarb #highprotein #dontbeafraidtorest #family #qualitytime

Day 29 (late)... • Back in work mode today so hydrating was more than important • I try and drink 3L per day (some days are easier than others). One of the massive results is the reduction in how much Diet Coke I’m consuming... it used to be my dose of caffeine in lieu of coffee (which I do not drink) however now I’m so full from the water consumption that I don’t really have room for anything else hahaha • #gettingbacktoabetterme #reversingthebiggirl #workingmyselfwell #walkingmyselfwell #health #fitness #healthjourneyblog #healthjourneyblogger #candaceandkira18k #gettinitdone #18000pushups #18000pushupchallenge #18000pushupsinayear #50pushupsaday #beeling40 #bekindtoyourself #anytimefitness #anytimefitnessaustralia #anytimefitnesstheshire #anytimefitnesscaringbah #centennialparklands #smartfoodchoices #summersalads #lowcarb #highprotein #dontbeafraidtorest #family #qualitytime
