Wellness by Mary Jo

I get why people think this.
I instinctively went there too.

But it’s probably what’s keeping you stuck.

Had a body fat test in January 🫠
…I wasn’t thrilled.

Not because I hate the way I look -
I actually feel pretty good most of the time.

But my lean muscle has dropped a lot over the last 5 years
(all the injuries + inconsistency),
and that’s not where I want to be for my health.

So instead of what most people instinctively want to do (lose weight),
it’s time to build. 💪🏻

This is about getting stronger, rebuilding muscle,
and feeling solid in my body again.

If I feel better in a bikini?
Great - bonus. 👙🫡

But that’s not the goal.

The goal is strength, health, and consistency…
and then repeating it for months + months. 👌🏻

Wyoming part one…😍

Sunrise, hiking, seeing Elk up close, camo + Marc >>>>>>

This place is beautiful. Who knew I’d love hunting with so much…it’s been beyond fun! 🦌

Ready for 2023…✨🥂

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Oh hey there, Facebook! :) I hope this blog post is helpful!

You have to be 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐘 to take that step, otherwise you’ll just spin your wheels.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
❌ It doesn’t have to be miserable, BUT...⁣⁣
✅ It does take SOME sacrifice.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
❌ It doesn’t mean you have to starve yourself, BUT...⁣⁣
✅ You have to put forth the effort to educate yourself on how to do things in a healthy/sustainable way.
⁣⁣
❌ It doesn’t happen overnight, BUT...⁣⁣
✅ IT IS WORTH BEING PATIENT.⁣⁣

“Doing the challenge was just the kick I needed to really get serious about getting healthy again. Mary Jo and the other women are such amazing resources but also encouragers. Learning about why you fuel your body and then getting to see results was so amazing. I lost 10 lbs and feel SO good about myself but I’m also motivated to now continue this journey and truly be the best I can be. Macro counting is SO freeing and I can finally have chips and queso, a glass of wine, or dessert without worrying that tomorrow I’ll only be able to drink a kale smoothie to offset the decisions.
