Some people just make it look so easy.
I tell them what to do for nutrition, we start working out, and BAM!
The inches/pounds just start falling off.
I'll pause for some of you to give a big eye roll.
We are all so different and so many things can affect our results; sleep, stress, thyroid(can I get an Amen!), food intolerance, yo-yo dieting.....the list goes on.
BUT for some people it's a no-brainer.
Stop eating crap. Start eating REAL food. Start Moving.
Something that can be so complicated is actually pretty simple. Sometimes I forget that.....
I noticed this with a client of mine. For the sake of privacy we'll call her, Catwoman.
(If you knew her then you would know why that's her pseudonym and not because she works out in a black leather onesie. And yes, I had to google "pseudonym" to make sure I spelled it correctly AND it means what I think it means.)
Anyway, back to Catwoman...
Catwoman has dieted on and off for many years. She actually knew what was healthy to eat but needed some guidance and mostly accountability.
We talked for about an hour about nutrition, most of which she already knew.
She started her food journal and started working out.
BAM.
It's been 2 months since we started and she has lost 29 lbs (haven't seen her yet this week so we are probably at 30 by now!)
I asked her the other day how she did this over night change, and she pretty much said she "just did it". (Sorry Nike, but you're not the only one that can use that saying)
This woman who has bad arthritis, hasn't worked out in years, and works a full time job (complete with secretaries that bring in treats & catered lunches) is just getting it done.
She has plenty of excuses she could use, but I've never heard one.
No fluff. No excuses. No complaining.
Catwoman,
this post is mostly for you.
You are inspiring people everyday with your story.
Continue to use your powers for good not evil.
To the batcave!
