Rounding out the final weeks of my fat loss phase and I feel like I have enough data to share major pros and cons from my experience.
Overall – I feel awesome. But not for reasons you might think. It’s not because I am less fluffy, or more defined, but that I am super proud of myself.
I am proud of my discipline and for sacrificing some comforts that I had grown used to. What doesn’t challenge you doesn’t change you and I love an overcoming-obstacles-for-personal-growth story.
When I made this post, I couldn’t help but put myself in the shoes of the women I encounter every day who live their life on the “cons” side. Without a plan and strategy, they find themselves chronically dieting – like that’s their only option.
>> constantly pre-occupied with aesthetic metrics
>> tons of mental energy going towards food and tracking
>> little to no variety in their eating pattern
>> hangry, craving, low energy is the norm
>> distracted by dieting so much they can’t enjoy a social life to it’s fullest
I will move through this phase with just a whiff of these feelings and I’m grateful for it. So, if you’re reading this and wishing that was your experience instead, don’t hesitate to reach out. There is a better more sustainable way to achieve even the biggest of body composition change goals.
