Crushing my goals and setting new onesποΈββοΈ

Honestly, this is the first time in yeeeaaarrss I feel like itβs really worked for me. Not just with weight loss but just being overall good..Iβm genuinely living my best life..feeling happy combined with strong mentally and physically...and continuing to get stronger. It took getting myself and my mind right for everything else to fall into place. When it all comes together, it just works. Balancing life!
I donβt think thereβs really a right answer to the whole thing but listening to yourself and your body. And, as cheesy or cliche as that may sound..itβs true. Obviously, yes, diet is important but think more of it as fuel for your body and less βI canβt have this..I canβt have thatβ. Getting out of that restrictive mindset and finding what works for your body. Finding better options or different recipes or what works for your body type. And living it as a lifestyle..not a quick fix. What works for me might not for you and vise versa. Stop comparing or worrying about what others are doing. Thatβs in all aspects of life, not just fitness and health. It really all starts with yourself...and putting in that work and healing time needed. Itβs not easy. Itβs easy to post the after picture. But the work is not easy. A lot of sweat and tears....blood and bruises too sometimes..like when you trip and fall over a rower machine..yea, I did thatππ€¦ββοΈππ€·ββοΈ
One thing that really helped me was throwing out my scale. Actually, the batteries died and I never replaced themπ..so it forced me to not check obsessively..then I threw it away after probably 3 months of it just sitting there. But, focusing on that damn thing messed with me for too long. I did track measurements once a month. Last I weighed myself was beginning of April and I weighed myself for the first time since then this past weekend.
Iβve lost around 20lbs and a total of 15inches. And though the number on the scale isnβt my main focus, it still is reassuring that what Iβm doing is working for me.
Thanks for reading! And whatever youβre going through or working on, stay strong..you got this!π
