It's Not What You Think...

I was sitting in the pediatric office for Kaden's first appointment since being home and I saw a quote on the wall that I just had to share with you...

A lot of us get into this journey with the goal of wanting less.

Less weight...

Fewer inches....

Less body fat percentage...

Less jiggle...

It's all about removing and having the mindset of less. 

Well, how about this?

"Health is not about the weight you lose but the life you gain."

Boom!

That's a perfect way to think about it, right?

You see, with the goal of less comes two things. 

If you're all about less weight and fewer inches it creates this negative mindset that as soon as you stop seeing results, you get frustrated. 

Also, what's the point of having less if it doesn't create more?

What happens if you lose all that weight and drop those inches but you're still not happy?

The real reason why we want less weight, fewer inches, and less jiggle, is to live a more fulfilling life. 

The confidence to wear that bathing suit...

The strength to not ask your husband for help carrying in that 50lb bag...

The ability to go on that family hike and not get winded...

So, really, even though we think we want less, it's still the end goal and the reason why we're doing it is to gain more out of life. 

More strength.

More happiness.

More of what you love. 

More confidence. 

More enjoyment. 

More. 

Make sense?

"Health is not about the weight you lose but the life you gain."

Alright, I'm off to go change a poopy diaper!

I'll be back tomorrow :)

1% Better.

Dedicated to Your Success,
