I went to Mexico with my girlfriends last weekend and I discovered something.
I got fat.
Ok, maybe not “fat” because I HATE that word, but I got heavy.
And it messed with my head the entire time.
My confidence tanked.
My thighs jiggling was a constant reminder of my weight gain.
My butt had cellulite where I’d never had it before.
I ruminated on how I looked and found myself in a position I’d never experienced before with my body….I was self-conscious and embarrassed.
I’m a nutritionist for Christ’s sake! I’m supposed to be the fit, lean one, not the overweight squishy one!
But there I was, hiding behind my coverup and strategically avoiding pictures.
It sucked.
And, it’s probably the best thing that could ever happen to me…for many reasons.
First, I found deeper empathy for my clients. I get it now….I mean, I REALLY get it. Your struggle, embarrassment, disappointment…all of it.
Second, I now get to take myself, again, through my program to experience EVERYTHING you all are. The highs and lows, and everything in between. It’ll help me make The SHED even better.
Third, I was forced to find acceptance and appreciation. Appreciation for the nine months I took to focus on healing my body from adrenal insufficiency, Hashimoto’s disease, and EBV. And acceptance of where I am now, and where I want to go with a healthy, healed body.
Now begins the process of prioritizing myself and my time to work on my body composition; just like you.
It starts with a plan.
Next comes the hard work of executing the plan…consistently, day after day.
If you’d like to join me, and other women in this journey, schedule a complimentary consultation with me HERE.
We begin on June 5th.
