Mindset Makeovers
It's been six years. Over the course of the first It's been six years. Over the course of the first four I lost 120 lbs, then regained 70. And the last two years I've been working to lose it. Weight loss and reclaiming your health are not linear. There is no straight path. But my detours had purpose β€” I just didn't understand at the time. I do now. For the first time, I feel like I have a handle on it. The process doesn't feel impossible, and never-ending anymore. I don't care how long it takes to get where I want to go, because when I get there I'll still be doing the same things. Maintenance has to look the same as the journey. I'm not trying to reach a destination, I'm rebuilding; and I don't want to do this again. So I need to burn all the bridges back. xo Lisa πŸ’œ
How would you define body image? I bet most of yo How would you define body image? I bet most of you would answer with something about how you look β€” the number on the scale or the size of your jeans. But we leave out strength, function, and everything our bodies were created to do. I've spent my entire life trying to make my body smaller, firmer, and less... What age has provided β€” besides a few wrinkles and unhinged hormones β€” is wisdom. Our bodies aren't meant to be ornamental. They are built to function. To carry us, heal us, and adapt. Yet we spend so much energy worrying about how we'll look in that bikini. Here's the thing β€” looking good in a bikini isn't a requirement for loving your body. But you do have to stop going to war with the body that has carried you through every season. xo Lisa πŸ’œ
Down 1 lb this week. The most unexpected thing si Down 1 lb this week. The most unexpected thing since starting GLπŸ«›-1 therapy is that I finally see exercise as something other than a weight loss tool. I move my body now because I want to, because it feels good, and because I want to get stronger. In the end, I want my story to be about what I gained, not what I lost. xo Lisa πŸ’œ
I took a much needed break. From social media, fro I took a much needed break. From social media, from the internet, and from screen time. Also, I was mad at Facebook. 😑 But I'm back β€” and here's where things stand: ⬇️ Down another pound since my last update. πŸ’ͺ Just started a another 90-day @hasfit_official program. ✌️ And I've decided fighting with Meta isn't worth my mental energy. My page is still here, and so are you. So let's get back to it. xo Lisa πŸ’œ
Down 2 lbs this week. Back to 100 lbs down. 115 da Down 2 lbs this week. Back to 100 lbs down. 115 days of exercise. And I made a decision. After six plus years, I'm leaving WW. It's the program that helped me build a foundation, and I wouldn't be where I am today without the lessons I learned. But it's time for a new season. By nature I'm resistant to change, so this decision didn't come easy β€” but it is overdue. After all, pivots are a necessary part of the journey. Happy Sunday! β˜€οΈ xo Lisa πŸ’œ
100 lbs down β€” again. The first time I hit that m 100 lbs down β€” again. The first time I hit that milestone was January 22, 2021. A lot has happened since then, and I've fought hard to get back here. When I was here before, my advice was "no matter where you are in your journey, persist. Just stay the course." I'd add to that now β€” if like me, you got lost somewhere along the way, make your way back. The comeback is worth it. xo Lisa πŸ’œ
Weekly Update πŸ’œ The scale told me 1.2 lbs down th Weekly Update πŸ’œ The scale told me 1.2 lbs down this week, but the body scan told me the story behind it. Down 4% body fat. Visceral fat down from 16 to 13. And my muscle mass remained stable. Over the past 16 weeks my daily step count has increased by roughly 6k steps per day. I completed a 90-day fitness program and started a new 30-day strength program with @hasfit_official And I added a goal for early 2027 β€” an unassisted pull-up. Started my arm hangs yesterday. We'll see! πŸ˜„ Happy Saturday! πŸŽ‰ xo Lisa πŸ’œ
The gym is a dangerous place. I don't go there any The gym is a dangerous place. I don't go there anymore. πŸ˜‚ When I was in my early 20s I left the gym, stepped off the curb, and fell. It was the scene that ended my gym career for life. So I work out at home now. Zero regrets. xo Lisa πŸ’œ
