…and started focusing on CONSISTENCY, not perfection.
Here’s exactly what I did to finally lose 35 lbs, get in the best shape of my life, and maintain it👇
1️⃣ I stopped waiting for the perfect time to magically come around. Instead of dreading the weekends, I embraced them. Instead of starting over every Monday, I continued with business as usual. I started planning and adjusting for my REAL life- no more wishful thinking.
2️⃣ I stuck to a SUSTAINABLE calorie deficit (~250 cals below maintenance). No more extreme diets I could never actually stick to that left my restricting all week and bingeing all weekend. I fueled properly & was able to finally find consistency.
3️⃣ I didn’t just focus on burning calories- I focused on building STRENGTH. 3-5x week progressive strength training. No one ever got “toned” by doing endless hours of cardio! Strength is crucial for seeing that definition and supporting a healthy happy body long term.
4️⃣ I got super honest with myself and relied on data, not emotion. This didn’t necessarily mean working HARDER than I was, but working smarter and not making excuses for why I wasn’t seeing results. Accountability was crucial in making the right adjustments to get where I wanted to be.
5️⃣ I played the long game. There were many scale fluctuations, “off track” days, bad body image moments, and times where I felt like I wasn’t making progress. Instead of throwing in the towel like I would in the past, I committed to the lifestyle of prioritizing feeling strong, healthy, and confident. I knew that wouldn’t happen overnight and focusing on the big picture was key.
