Commitment

 “Commitment means staying loyal to what you said you were going to do long after the mood you said it in has left you.”

At the end of January I decided I was tired of quitting... tired of putting myself last and decided to take up space in my own life.
•
Every journey is hard, there are times when I’ve went home crying after my training because I wasn’t who I used to be. So frustrated, ashamed and disappointed. However I had to change my focus, and make it be about WHO I WAS TO BECOME (not try to be who I used to be). The old me is gone@ik more ways than one! I don’t even recognize that person anymore!!!!
•
At the end of the day; regardless of how hard it got emotionally or physically - I never missed a training session and I’ve been SUPER consistent in my nutrition. There are no binge weekends or excessive alcohol on the daily. Weigh & measure almost all of my food. Meal prep like crazy and kept away from situations that could hinder my process.

I am COMMITTED, DEDICATED & SOLD OUT to myself and the promise I made to take up space in my own life and put me first. ❤️❤️

So here I am today... Down almost 50# and asking my coach for more food, after we just recently increased my intake and I still lost weight. 😂 It’s no longer about the scale; It’s about performing at a weight that I feel best at and can maximize my peformance. I’ve hit the most amazing PRs at the gym. My body has just continued to be like... “woah we’ve never done that before, but we just did it!” That never gets old!

Grateful for my nutrition & training coach, @gj.lake, who has been with me every step of the way ... When I know I’m not the easiest person to work with, super emotional and sometimes sassy.
•
Grateful for my husband @greenregan who has adapted to me being committed to my journey and putting myself first. Grateful for my friends & CFG family for their support & encouragement.
•
This is a journey that I’m on and loving every minute of it! I’ve learned a lot about mental health in this process and I’ll save that for another post!
•
For now... keeping my fire burning with what I’m passionate about... and thats MYSELF 💚
