Slow down
The faster you rush through the weight loss process, the less prepared you’ll be to maintain your progress.
Take your time developing the foundation that will be your lifelong active lifestyle. Trade the next few years getting this squared away, so that the decades that follow include a healthy relationship with food, fitness and yourself. Please. 🤗 👊🏻
Hey there. Fitness doesn’t have to be complicated. In fact, the simpler it is, the easier it is to stick with it.
Hey there. Being happy at any size and healthy at your size are two separate but deeply connected ideas.
Over time, I’ve realized that success isn’t about hitting every target, it’s about showing up and adapting as needed. Remember, your journey is about the long game, not the short-term wins. Be proud of what you’re doing, even on the tough days.
Focusing on your own process doesn’t mean shutting out the world, it’s about creating a “mental bubble” to protect your mindset. Surround yourself with supportive people, but remember, your results come from your actions, not theirs. Stay consistent, stay self-aware, and most importantly, stay connected to yourself.
I think taking stock of not only how much time we spend on social, but also observing how our mind and emotions feel while on it, we can find our best mix of time on and off our phones.
Below you’ll my monthly workout counts for each month going back to when I first got my Apple Watch towards the end of January in 2021. You’ll notice fluctuations throughout but on average I’ve done 53.5 workouts a month since I started tracking. That’s the story of long-term consistency. There’s been a lot of testing with workout types, frequency, what to consider a workout and not to mention, quite a few injuries. What you see though, is by showing up and working through a process the numbers work themselves out over time.
Here are so journal prompts you can reflect on and write about:
How often do you check in on your personal goals?
What’s one area of your life where you feel off course?
Have you experienced growth through past challenges?
How do you feel about where your life is headed right now?
What’s a habit that helps you stay connected to yourself?
How do you process life changes you didn’t plan for?
What does a “connected life” look like to you?
How long does it typically take for you to process major life shifts?
What’s a lesson you’ve recently learned from life’s unexpected turns?
Hey there. Taking time to pause and assess where you’re headed can be more important than simply pushing forward. It’s as much about staying connected to your own path and giving ourself space to reflect. When we’re constantly “doing,” it’s easy to lose sight of our original goals.
Hey there. Let’s walk you through the Your Level Fitness (YLF) Philosophy. If you’ve ever felt frustrated by diet trends or lost in the sea of “shoulds” in the health world, this is for you. We’re going to dive into the “inside-out” approach.
