Get Real.. I need to take it one day at a time!


I'm not sure about you but I know for me it can seem so overwhelming to think about the long long super long road ahead that is staying in shape, looking good, feeling confident, eating healthy, exercising consistently.  So for me I set little goals.  I try to break it down into 7 days and then each morning tell myself I only have to worry about today, not tomorrow, not next month... just today.

When I do this I feel like I can complete my goals for the day but not just complete them Conquer them.  I set myself up for success.  That's not to say I don't have long term goals but I try not to let them become my main focus. I see them in the overall picture but I break them down to manageable pieces.  And when I complete those pieces then they fit together like a perfect little puzzle.

So here's a little something new that I'm trying to do to stay accountable.  I'm taking before photos every 7 days until I decide that they are my after photos.  I'll occasionally share them with you guys so you can see my progress whether its forwards or back.  It's a little scary putting it out there for the world to see but again one step at a time.  One day at a time until the results are in and then again we continue one day at time.

 This was taken on Day 1 of the new one day at a time attitude.  I was getting overwhelmed by my desire to know when I would see changes in my body from all the hard work I'd been doing.  But for me I have a very skewed sense of what I look like and I needed to start with a reference point.


So what was great is that I started seeing results pretty fast. I was consistently doing my new workout program T 25, and I was eating super clean and healthy.  It was starting to pay off and pretty fast.  Needless to say I was pleased.

Then vacation hit!

Well, I did workout 6 of the 7 days on vacation.  But let me say you cannot and I mean you cannot out workout a bad diet.  When we got down to the beach I weighed myself and I was down to 143.5.  That's a really good weight for me and I was happy to be at the beach a little leaner.  Still had a ways to go to get to my desired results but again I said to myself One day at a time.  Well, as you can see I ballooned back up.  The night we got back I weighed in at 153.  I do think a lot of that was water retention, but still AHHH that's a lot of weight.

We are 4 days back to our routine and I know I'm back on track.  The diet is healthy and clean.  I'm following my exercise program.  I'm getting out to ride my horse, Bella.  So let's so where I go from here.

If you need someone to support you.  If you need to find the right workout program for you.  If you need one easy meal a day that you don't have to cook.  Then you've found some one to help you.  I want to be apart of your journey and I want you to be apart of mine.  I think that when we surround ourselves with people who have similar goals then we succeed much easier!  Contact me at Kellyrose.kcr@gmail.com  I promise you that we can do this.
