gofitjo: Fitness is not about the perfect body it’s about...



gofitjo:

Fitness is not about the perfect body it’s about getting your life together, overcoming fears, and building self confidence. Fitness will always be a continuous evolution of discovering who you are meant to be. #strongereveryday

The reason why I started this fitness journey was because 3 years ago when my daughter was 9 years old, I called myself “ugly and fat” right after she complimented me in my outfit as we were getting ready to go out for the day. I did the #fattalk, the same fat talk that most of us women do with our girlfriends while out shopping in the dressing rooms. The moment those words came out of my mouth she had this look on her face that I WILL NEVER forget. It was as if I stole the only truth that she knew about her mother, that in her eyes I would always be the strong and beautiful woman she would look up to as an example to lead her own life. That moment I knew that I needed to rebuild my confidence, fight all the body image issues I had, and set the intention of getting healthier not only for me, but for my daughters.

We are all in the messy middle of our story, trying to figure it all out. Learning to love yourself at every stage of fitness and life will always be an evolving lesson. At the end of the day I want to be #strongnotskinny by my own definition. I want to be beautiful, in the way I SEE it not in the eyes or definition of others. ✨ Be your own inspiration and make YOURSELF proud. ✨#transformationtuesday
