If someone had told me this would be my results after 3 months I never would have believed it. I thought it would have been way harder. But as I look back through this new journey, it’s been one of the simplest things I have ever done. Maybe not the first week or two. But since then…simple ❤️
My goal in doing all this was not to be “skinny”. My ultimate goals were:
•lean out
•decrease body fat
•increase muscle mass
•get stronger 💪🏻
•be healthier and the best version of myself I can be
•not succumb to idea that what was happening was just “normal and expected” in menopause 🖕🏻
Not only have I accomplished all of these in 3 months, but I completely shifted my metabolism, I decreased visceral fat, I can FEEL that my hormones are more balanced 🥰. I don’t snack anymore. I spend WAY less money on groceries. And I’ve gained so much MORE time in my days because I don’t have to think about what I’m cooking or the next best recipe.
Not to mention I feel the best I’ve felt in years 🙌🏻.
I always go back to “never say never”. Because whenever I say it, I end up doing it…always 😅. I said I’d never track macros. I said i’d never weight and measure my food. And while that worked for me in my 30’s and well…half my 40’s…it just wasn’t working anymore. So here we are.
Since my last check in, I INCREASED my calorie intake, continued to lose a few lbs and started to gain muscle mass. Bingo! Thats been the goal 🔥
13 weeks….
•125.9 lbs ➡️ 117.1 lbs ➡️ 115.5lbs
•26.6% body fat ➡️ 24.7% ➡️ 23.1%
•Muscle Mass 51.1 ➡️ 48.7 ➡️ 49.4 (starting the upswing again 🙌🏻)
Have I been perfect 100% of the time? Not at all. I’ve gone out to eat. I’ve participated in celebrations. I’ve had a few glasses of wine here and there. But the majority of the time I’m sticking to the plan. And I love the way I feel when I’m doing it.
I’ll be continuing this until it’s time to make a shift again. I’m on no timeline here. You can’t be. Life shifts so often we need to keep shifting along with it. Be water. Flow. Keep moving. And always be willing to try things you’ve never tried before 😘
