Before I started coaching and training and speaking to women on how to care for themselves,?
I had struggled,?
you see losing weight is easier
So easy that it is boring
Building a healthy lifestyle was so easy that it was boring
But I wanted it complicated, I needed it to be complicated,?
It could not just be about? making good meals, moving better and more than I feel good
I wanted to do the hard things
I wanted to try 50 burpees
30 jump squats
I wanted to feel like I was working hard
And I did
Till I got? burnt out
And i reluctantly went back to doing the boring? things
Repeating the same exercises
Eating almost the same meals
Going to bed on time
Breathing
Slowing down
Taking walks
And not my weight never fluctuated again
I used to gain a ton of weight?
And then I would have to start my fitness journey all over again
Or I? thought I did
I didnt understand that fitness being a lifestyle was just that, a lifestyle, nothing fancy
This is how I live my life? now
I do the boring things
I make the boring have fun on my behalf
Eat my cucumbers, talking a walk while listening to my favorite music

Move my body so that it feels so good to challenge myself
So good I could cry
I have become this person that knows how to care for herself
Like I said yesterday there are many markers of health
And something we go on the defense and fight food, fat, and exercise
But other domains of health and wellness are often overlooked, you might lose weight or get strong and still not feel good about your body, but until you look at your health on a grand scale, your fitness journey could be doing more harm than good
There is a multifaceted approach to flourishing health and not just body size which we will discuss in a letter topics
But now looking at your satisfaction with your body and your fitness these factors contribute to making you strong, healthy, and happy in your body, and not just weight loss and weight gain
Your behavior
Your injury history
Your breath quality
Your body composition
Your sleep quality
Your nutritional awareness
The quality of your movement
These are factors that contribute to your overall fitness and wellness
This is why? I created the move eat love method
I know you have been sold the idea that weight loss cures all ills
But think about how long you have been chasing weight loss, or trying to force yourself to exercise
Think about how much resistance you feel to exercising
Think about how much confusion there is about eating?
Think out your body composition and how it could affect the quality of your life
And we are still focused on weight loss?
I would encourage you to stay around for a while and I will break down these factors and how they overall make your life and body better and stronger as you age
Until then?
