Bubbles!! 😁❤️ Because far too often I get wrapped up in the seriousness of life. So here's your reminder to enjoy simple pleasures like warm onesies and bubbles 😍 🥰 Be Kind To Yourself 🥰 . . . #menshealthcoach #leanerforlife #weightlossdoneright #comfortableinmyskin #healthymindhealthybody #healthyweightloss #happinesslooksgoodonyou #weightlosscoach #clevermousecoach (at Weaverville, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CX1iTCOrTH1/?utm_medium=tumblr

Kindness starts with you ❤️ Just like flying in an airplane, you've got to secure your mask first before helping someone else with theirs. Being kind to yourself also includes taking care of yourself, physically and mentally. Are you getting enough sleep? Are you staying hydrated and drinking water? Are you choosing healthy foods and snacks? Are you staying active throughout the day? Are you making your health and happiness a priority??

*can* you lose weight by going out alone? Sure. Is it more difficult? You betcha! I had a client recently graduate my Body Positive program, and I'm celebrating his results 😁🎉 He's been over 280 pounds since 2013, and over 300 pounds since 2019. When we started working together, he was at 323 pounds, and thought losing any weight was impossible. 🎉 I'm celebrating that in 12 weeks he went from 323 to 282 lbs, lost 4 inches off his waist, and lowered his blood pressure from 200/120 (😳) to 124/80. ❤️ 🎉 I'm celebrating he's healthy enough to do things he loves again, specifically riding his bicycle, and he has the energy to play with kids. ❤️ If you're over 40 and resigned to a sedentary life and eating ibuprofen everyday; believe me when I say there's hope and it's not too late to have the life and body you want 🔥 🥰 Be Kind To Yourself 🥰 . . . #menshealthcoach #leanerforlife #weightlossdoneright #comfortableinmyskin #healthymindhealthybody #healthyweightloss #happinesslooksgoodonyou #weightlosscoach #clevermousecoach (at Weaverville, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXpAF0ArkkP/?utm_medium=tumblr

If you were raised to "man up" and "not be such a sissy" or "crybaby" this message is for you ❤️ Some of the earliest memories of my father (4 & 5 years old) are of him mocking me for crying, even though his drunk ass was the cause of my distress. I internalized his criticism, and for decades struggled with my weight, body image, and self confidence because of it. Not anymore. Emotional engagement does not equal emotional distress. 🥰 Once more for the people in the back: EMOTIONAL ENGAGEMENT DOES NOT EQUAL EMOTIONAL DISTRESS ❤️ I've dropped over 120 pounds, but the greatest weight I've dropped doesn't show on the scales: the weight of other people's expectations. I call my program Body Positive because it is. I'm here to help you love ALL of you as you are now, even the parts you were conditioned to shove down and ignore. You are worthy of love and kindness now, and losing weight or achieving a certain body shape isn't going to make you more worthy of love and kindness. So please, be kind to yourself, and feel your feelings. Don't eat your feelings or try to drown your sorrows like I did. . . . #menshealthcoach #leanerforlife #weightlossdoneright #comfortableinmyskin #healthymindhealthybody #healthyweightloss #happinesslooksgoodonyou #weightlosscoach #clevermousecoach (at Weaverville, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXmVx6jrVUs/?utm_medium=tumblr

One of the biggest lessons I've learnt on "my fitness journey" (🤮)is that what you put into your body is a lot more important than what you do with it! A few years ago I became 𝘰𝘣𝘴𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘥 with training. I would get up early every morning & do at least 20-minutes on the bike, before getting ready to head to work • I easily exceeded 10000 steps a day, trained for a few hours every evening, cut out carbs and my goal was to essentially eat as little as possible. I guess it "worked". At the time my goal was 100% weight loss based, I thought skinny = better & I hit my lowest weight (54.4kg). But I was hungry 𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗘 (even though I said I wasn't), I used caffeine as a crutch to fuel me through my days and I would skip social events and occasions so that I could stay in 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘭. What I understand now that I didn't back then is that the most important step when wanting to lose fat / build muscle is to focus on nutrition • What you eat 𝗖𝗔𝗡 & 𝗪𝗜𝗟𝗟 make all the difference. If you combine nutrition and fitness, the results will be even better! Eating in a calorie deficit, but choosing nutritious foods will help you shed those unwanted pounds in a 𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗟𝗧𝗛𝗬 & 𝗦𝗨𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗜𝗡𝗔𝗕𝗟𝗘 way. These days I train 3-times a week for about 60-minutes, do about 7000 steps a day and 𝗘𝗔𝗧 𝗟𝗜𝗞𝗘 𝗔 𝗤𝗨𝗘𝗘𝗡 • I was lucky that circumstances in my life changed which meant that I changed my training habits and, although the pounds piled back on, I started to use fitness for more than the physical results.
