I wish I could go back and tell that version of me what was coming. 🥹
Three babies in four years. Over 60 pounds to lose. A body I didn’t recognize and a version of myself I desperately wanted to feel like again.
I loved being a mom but I also missed ME.
For a long time, I believed becoming the woman I wanted to be required a season I wasn’t in. More time, more freedom & less responsibility.
Eventually I realized the season wasn’t going to change, but my mindset could. I stopped waiting for motherhood to get easier & learned how to work hard in the middle of it
I became disgusted with every excuse I previously made & started following through
I started tracking & stopped convincing myself it was hard, confusing or stressful. Those were excuses. I prioritized protein, learned my macros & stopped fearing carbs because I wanted to be STRONG & have energy. Not just get smaller.
I started lifting consistently, pushing difficult weight until failure. I started running. I went from an 11-minute mile feeling like an all-out effort to waking up excited to run 9 miles before sunrise.
I simplified my routine. Stopped over-supplementing & ditched the 20-step wellness routine. Doing less brought more results.
I prepared the night before so mornings required fewer decisions. I built systems that worked WITH my kids, not ones that required them to disappear for two hours.
I learned to have a backup plan. To do what I could with the time I had. To stop needing every day to look perfect before I could be consistent.
Those habits compounded & I lost over 60 pounds.
But what I gained is what makes me emotional. 🥹
I’m stronger. I’m an athlete. I have energy for my babies, goals that excite me & confidence in myself I never had before.
The people I love most are no longer getting a version of me that settles for less than my best.
If you’re a mom watching this thinking “I want that, but I don’t know how to make it happen in my life”, im putting all I’ve learned & done into a simple guide to getting results in the middle of motherhood. Comment STRONG & I’ll send you a link to get on the early access list
