A lot of women tell me they’ve been trying to either lose weight or gain muscle for a long time now but never reached their goal. Honestly, it’s pretty common to feel this way because we always feel like we should be “further” than where we’re at now. 

It’s ok to feel this way, but don’t let it bring you down or hold you back. You deserve more for yourself <3

Here are 4 things I’ve noticed over the years that women tend to forget…and maybe you did, too:

1. You’re not eating enough

The media tells us we have to eat less to lose weight, but that’s FAR from the truth. You can lose weight eating MORE. There’s so much more to life than dieting. If you’ve ever wanted to stop dieting FOREVER and actually reach your goals eating more food, I show you how HERE. And it’s not too good to be true 😘

2. You focus on the number on the scale

You can’t always trust the number on the scale. I’m not saying you shouldn’t use it, but don’t rely on them to see progress!⁣
⁣
A few reasons why the scale is higher:

• You’re stressing out. When you stress out, your cortisol levels are heightened. Meaning it can cause inflammation, holding onto water, etc⁣
• You’re on your period. When you have your period, you’re holding onto water (not a bad thing!). Which means you can gain 2-10 pounds. This is what your body is supposed to do!⁣
• You haven’t gone to the bathroom. I don’t think I have to elaborate on this one 💩⁣
• You drank water or ate food. If you notice you’re “bigger” midday or later in the day, that’s totally normal. The scale is going to show a higher number when you eat and drink because you put more “weight” into your body ☺️

Focus on non scale victories! Get rid of the scale if it’s making you feel like crap. Don’t let it have power over you cuz it’s just not worth it! 😉

3. You have surface level goals

It’s ok to have body goals, but don’t forget to dig deep into ‘why.’ Example: You want to lose 20 lbs so you feel even more confident in your skin when you’re being intimate with your husband/partner. 

Or you want to lose 20 lbs so you can walk up a flight of stairs without getting out of breath or run around the backyard with your kids without struggling.

Dig deep on your ‘why.’

4. You aren’t being patient with your progress

It’s really easy to want to reach your goals faster. Especially if it feels like you’ve been working at them for what seems like forever. I totally get it. But being patient is part of the process. This kinda goes back to #3, focus on your ‘why.’

And my biggest tip for you is to not wait until New Year’s. Get started today because you’re worth it <3

You can reach your goals without the New Year’s fad diets that circle around year after year….no more dieting, no meal plans, no more working out too much…none of that.

Like I said, you deserve more, and you don’t have to feel miserable or kill yourself to get there.

If you’re reading this and you’re someone who’s wanting to balance out your nutrition without depriving yourself, get in shape and ‘tone’ up your body, and gain a life you’ve always wanted…
