Grateful for the Pursuit

I can’t imagine not doing this! Every part of this lifestyle has become habitual. To think about not participating in it feels so foreign.

It may not always be as extreme or demanding but the commitment to my goals doesn’t waiver.

I am grateful to be on this pursuit!

I remember when I first started, all I wanted were lines on my stomach and smaller legs.

I would use really unhealthy and disordered ways to get this and I was constantly in a state of criticism. Nothing was ever good enough.

Now it’s years into this journey and I have so much acceptance of myself, of the idea that there will never be perfection, and that I will continue to grow and learn.

I want muscle and density and size and shape and if sometimes my stomach has lines and sometimes it doesn’t it doesn’t mean I am any less or should hide!!

I love my legs now and I have grown my upper body and I am stronger.

I don’t participate in disordered eating and I more effortlessly and automatically combat negative and old thought and behavior patterns.

It is not because I decided to work on myself for a day or a few weeks or a month or even a year.

It’s because I recommit to myself every day and keep showing up so what once required extreme effort to change now happens more automatically.

I made a new normal for myself and so can you.

If you’re looking for resources I have tons to support you through the mental demands that building this lifestyle can have.
