I had issues with the way my body looks my whole life which made loving and accepting myself a whole lot harder.
I always said I was not the athletic kind, to justify my laziness and lack of enthusiasm with fitness. It’s true. I’m not the most coordinated person. But I am flexible as fuck. I always had amazing muscle mass, even under all that fat, particularly on my lower body. I always said I couldn’t do it. I always said I wasn’t strong enough.
But, I am.
I really am.
And two months after hitting the gym almost every day, I am able to see a round butt forming. Good quads. Even baby biceps.
I still have fat to lose. Obviously.
I still have work to do. Rome wasn’t built in a day. But it’s okay.
Conclusion: I can do anything, be anything. My lack of motivation, my self hate, all these years… It was all in my head. And it was holding me back. I didn’t realize how much until now.
So to all of you who are living with a self destructive mind, like I was… I hope you realize your worth soon enough.
I know it’s hard. I’m with you on that.
But as soon as you let go of that mindset, as soon as you decide you won’t let the dark side of your mind take control of your life, as soon as you get the discipline to ignore the negative thoughts… You will blossom. Trust me. You will. You can be anything. You have it in you. Trust yourself! It’s a hard process. But it’s worth it. 😊
NOTE: years separate those two photos. 2 months is just the amount of time I’ve been taken the gym seriously, and seeing muscle gainzzzz. 😊
