Athlete Ashley…..After years of battling obesity, I’ve somehow conditioned my brain to associate weight loss as good”, and weight gain as bad.” No matter what I see in the mirror, no matter how many times you explain bulking, I still wake up and allow my weight to dictate how I feel about myself. I know obsessing over the number on the scale is NOT healthy, and I realize I am literally driving myself crazy! Today I remind myself to Trust the Process!” I am seeing changes, and I need to be patient, not get so discouraged, and trust that with consistency and time, I will get there! This picture is also to remind me that the number on the scale does NOT mean good,” bad,” healthy,” or unhealthy.” I’m 50 lbs heavier than the 2nd picture and probably 100 times healthier!
