Hey there. I’ve been in the fitness industry for a couple of decades, and I’ve seen how often it positions weight loss as the ultimate goal. The message has always been that if you just lose the weight, you’ll finally feel confident, happy, and worthy. But I’ve come to see that the real story is different. Weight loss is not the goal. It’s the byproduct of the actions you take and the mindset you choose to build.

Hey there. I used to think the goal was weight loss. Now I see the scale as a byproduct of what I do and how I think. I cannot force twenty pounds off by a set date. I can choose actions I will repeat. I can build an environment that makes those actions easier. When I focus on what is in my control, the pressure drops and progress feels calmer.

Hey there. If you’re new to the YLF message or just getting back into it, this is a great time to revisit what it really means to approach health and fitness from the inside/out. You’ve probably heard that success in this space comes down to habits and focusing on what’s within your control. And that’s true. But it’s only part of the story.

Hey there. When it comes to fitness and weight loss, most people focus on one thing above all else: the result. The number on the scale. The size of their clothes. The measurement around their waist. And while tracking those things has its place, the truth is that focusing on them can actually hold you back.

Hey there. Embarking on a weight loss journey is a commendable decision, and it's essential to approach it with the right mindset. One common challenge many face is the anticipation of immediate results, especially when regularly monitoring weight. It's important to understand that the efforts you put in between weigh-ins might not always reflect instantly on the scale.

Hey there. Today, I want to dive into something that can transform the way you approach health and fitness, shifting your focus from outcomes to actions. This simple yet powerful mindset change can help you break free from the roller coaster of dieting and create sustainable habits that last a lifetime.

Keep focusing on what’s within your control and the stuff that isn’t will work itself out.

Which path are you choosing?

You have to figure out how to handle this. Once you do, things get better. Your outlook, confidence, results...EVERYTHING!

If you feel stuck you’re focusing on the wrong thing. YOU can get the hang of this.

Incremental progress doesn’t show up every day. Many times you’ll feel like you’re stuck for months, working towards things you think you “should” be further along on.

How would this shift in thinking change your weight loss journey? 🤔
