#plussizeworkout

So I had a girl message me saying that being plus -size and posting my workouts and progress photos is triggering and problematic for other plus size who see it. After I kindly reminded that I’m grown and will post whatever I want- we agreed to disagree. Part of the reason I became a coach was to show that fitness isn’t about size and that you can do whatever you want at any size at any size, it’s not about fitting in to any society standards. I am curious though. What do you think ? When you see someone’s workouts or progress photos, how does it make you feel? #plussizewomen #plussizeworkoutclothes #plussizeworkout #bodypositivemovement #bodyacceptance #blackismyhappycolor (at Houston, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CL2pGiJhoIs/?igshid=1uyg1bcm33slc

Week 6 Night 1 So I forgot to post like a day or 2 in a row and on top of that, the end of week 5 was rough. There was so much that I had to do that we missed a few days as well. Definitely not how I planned week 5 going at all. But the important part is to not get hung up on that, keep going onwards and upwards! And that's exactly what we are doing. Last night was still a rough night, partly from being off from the gym about 4 days in a row (yeah, bad idea) and from still just being tired. But we still did it! We haven't been eating the best, and I don't see the progress in myself that I wish I was seeing after 5 weeks, but progress is still there. It's just very very slow. . . . #selfie #gymselfie #workoutselfie #gym #workout #plussizeworkout #fitness #plussizefitness #weightloss #plussizeweightloss #weightlossjourney #fitnessjourney #fattofit #fat2fit #Marveltomarvel #myfitnesspal #mfp #fitbit https://www.instagram.com/loriarty_/p/BvwPgZCFBYm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1fyxrxv66ulr9

Week 3 Day 2 Woo buddy, we had a late night tonight. So good news it, I've started getting my eating under control and I'm getting to a point where I can resist cravings. We had small individual bags of potato chips at work, and I resisted it all. So that's definitely a victory for me. And I'm reaching a point where I don't go over my calories anymore, and I still feel ok. I don't feel like I'm starving all the time. The gym is coming along well too. We upped our reps, and oh man can you feel the burn. Haha! But I'm not really sore anymore. I've started noticing small changes in my self, not sure if it's just me willing change to happen or what, but I swear my waist looks a little smaller. . . . #selfie #gymselfie #workoutselfie #gym #workout #plussizeworkout #fitness #plussizefitness #weightloss #plussizeweightloss #weightlossjourney #fitnessjourney #fattofit #fat2fit #Marveltomarvel #myfitnesspal #mfp https://www.instagram.com/loriarty_/p/Bu5jFw4lpFS/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=pcb50uzamuc6

Week 2 Night 5 And there we have it! Week 2 DONE! There were a few rough nights that it almost felt like it would be impossible to finish. And yet we kept going. I've started to notice very small physical changes in myself. And I definitely mentally feel so much better. My body is getting use to going to the gym again, and my endurance is coming back. While the weight isn't coming off like I want it to, I have to keep reminding myself that it takes time. It's only been 2 weeks. It seemed to happen to fast last time, and yet I looked back and realized how long I had worked to lose all that weight. It helped, because I don't feel like I'm failing this time like I thought I was. We very well may be going tomorrow night as well just for an extra night. But we've reached our 5 days for the week goal! . . . #selfie #gymselfie #workoutselfie #gym #workout #plussizeworkout #fitness #plussizefitness #weightloss #plussizeweightloss #weightlossjourney #fitnessjourney #fattofit #fat2fit #Marveltomarvel #myfitnesspal #mfp https://www.instagram.com/loriarty_/p/Bux3EQLFzc-/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11urcr79cbja2

Day 1 of Week 1 I can't even count how many times I've said that. How many times I've started over. This time I have to make it work. I have to make it stick. I have to keep myself accountable. I'm about 10 lbs away from where I was at my heaviest. I cannot let myself get back there. I was doing so well and I remember how great I felt. I've reached out to a couple friends to help me stay accountable. But I want to extend it to any of you. At any time you can shoot me a message, ask how it's going, if it's a Sunday-Thursday check and make sure I'm going to the gym. It's fine, I need support from others. It's why I make these post. Because it's so much easier to see supportive comments and get supportive messages. Let's see if I can do this. Because I know I can do this! . . . #selfie #gymselfie #workoutselfie #gym #workout #plussizeworkout #fitness #plussizefitness #weightloss #plussizeweightloss #weightlossjourney #fitnessjourney #fattofit #fat2fit #Marveltomarvel #myfitnesspal #mfp

I did it guys. Tonight was night 2 back at the gym. I joked at worked today, I started back to the gym and this morning when I weighed myself I gained 3lbs. But it feels good to be going back. I always enjoy the gym and I love working out. It's just that motivation to even go is sometimes impossible.... even when it's something positive and that I love. But I thought what better time to get back into it than New Years so.... here I am. Here's to 2018, I'm gonna make this year be wonderful! . . . #gym #gymselfie #fitness #plussizefitness #fitnessjourney #weightloss #weightlossjourney #workout #plussizeworkout #inspiration #myfitnesspal #mfp #fitbit

Week 2 back the the gym, night 1 of 3. I'm really easing myself back into this. It was a short night since I got such a late start, but I'm still proud that I went. :) hoping to build myself back up to 5 nights a week. Right now I'm on track to reach my first goal in a few months. So here's hoping I stick with it. . . . #fitness #fitnessjourney #fitnessselfie #gym #gymselfie #selfie #weightloss #weightlossjourney #workout #gymworkouts #plussizeworkout #plussizefitness #fattofit #health #healthyliving #fitbit #mfp #myfitnesspal

And night 2 was a success. It's so true that the hardest part of going to the gym is actually GOING because once I get there I love it. I always get mad at myself when I stop going because I always feel so so so SOOOO much better when I work out. #gym #gymselfie #workout #fitness #plussizeworkout #weightloss #weightlossjourney #mfp #myfitnesspal
