Transformation Tuesday

Transformation Tuesday. Everyone knows what it is – our timelines and newsfeeds are blown up on the regular with transformation pictures. And I’m guilty! I love sharing what works for me, what can I say J

Truthfully, my biggest transformation recently has not been my appearance. I mean, I definitely let loose sometimes and realize it’s getting a liiitle more difficult to pull my pants up. Actually this may happen a little more often than I’d like to lead on BUT STILL.

You know how sometimes you find yourself in a situation and you’re just like WHAT HOW WHY NO STOP! And you’re trying to hard to fight it. And fight it and fight it and fight it. So I did this CRAZY thing and just stopped fighting it. And things started… falling into place?! Seriously, though. I know it sounds crazy, but just follow with me here. I let go of my want need for control, embraced the change, and starting working with it. And things kind of started… just working out!

Maybe this doesn’t sound like a big ‘transformation,’ but within the past year I have really went for and embraced a few things that I felt were my 'calling,' if you will. And it has been just the past few months that I have actually starting believing in myself. I have always had big dreams, but never truly 100% believed that I could achieve them. So I guess I’m just saying that while I obviously feel strongly about having a positive body image and feeling good great about yourself, there are so many other important transformations worth talking about!

Thanks for checking in and dreaming with me! XO

My Fitness Journey

The never-ending journey!

This post is for all the moms struggling to lose those last few pregnancy pounds, the girls who have tried numerous diets and workouts without the results they were looking for, the guys who are struggling to gain confidence in their body. This is for you!!

This picture is me – today – right now.  I am in NO WAY posting this so you can body shame yourself or strive to get where I am. Your journey is YOUR OWN! I have stretch marks, too. I have days where I feel uncomfortable with my body, too. If you only knew what I went through to get HERE, you would feel SO much better about your own journey!

I worked and continue to work hard for my body. It is SO incredibly important to me that I am in a HEALTHY place – and that’s where you should strive to be as well. Just like everything else in life, these things take time, hard work, and dedication.

I am so fortunate to have found Beachbody and to be surrounded with people who are so encouraging of my fitness journey. If you are struggling or just in need of motivation and support, you are not alone! I would be happy to help you in any way that I can, just contact me!

If I could give any small piece of advice, whether it be about your fitness journey or anything in life, it would be to just go for it. Don’t think even for a second that you can’t or you won’t or how much time it’s going to take. You have to believe in yourself, because sometimes you may be the only one believing – and that’s okay! Lukewarm is NO GOOD. Go for it – with everything! Xo
