First day at Disney today. Got over 40,000 steps before we got back to the hotel. Watch reset at midnight after 38,590 steps and got another 2500 after midnight that will log on tomorrow’s date. Getting to bed and resting so we can walk more tomorrow. Sore feet are real. Love the steps! Ate a solid breakfast with protein. Limited my sweets. Ate a protein bar at the end of the day. Still under calories. Limited protein options running around the park. Packing more options tomorrow.

FriYAY = self-care mode ON 💅✨Mani + pedi time and just relaxing… My nail tech looked at me today and goes:“Are you taking GLP injections?” 😱🤔 I was like… wait WHAT?! 😂 She told me she’s known me for a while, seen my weight go up and down over the years… but this is the leanest she’s ever seen me with my weight loss being consistent. And now?Anytime she sees someone losing weight, she assumes it’s GLP because “everyone is on it.” 👀 Not gonna lie… that caught me off guard. I told her—No shortcuts here. No cheat codes. Just the unsexy stuff: ✔️ Tracking my food (even when I don’t feel like it) ✔️ Strength training consistently ✔️ Getting my steps in daily ✔️ Working on my mindset (THIS is the real work) Don’t get me wrong—no judgment at all if someone is using medical support under a doctor. But THIS journey for me? It’s built on habits I can sustain for life 💪 Because what people see is the result…But what they DON’T see is: 👉 The discipline 👉 The days I didn’t feel motivated 👉 The consistency over time No shade… but also… give yourself more credit if you’re putting in the work 👏🔥. 📍Friendly reminder for anyone newer here: Don’t compare your Chapter 1 to someone else’s Chapter 10…And don’t assume there’s always a shortcut behind someone’s progress.

Here's some more inspiration for the weekend... if you want something nice for dessert 😋 https://www.instagram.com/theannalindberg?igsh=MTlyaG16anE4c3Vk

I want to share something about one of our clients, Kara. She's a doctor. Long hours, random shifts, eating whenever she could fit it in. For years she'd been losing and regaining the same 10-15 lbs. She'd lose weight for a couple of months, get sick of what she was doing, stop, and by April she was heavier than when she started. On top of that, she was pre-diabetic. So we didn't put her on a diet. We just taught her how food actually works. How calories work. How protein works. How to build meals that keep you full without eating like a monk. She was still eating takeout when she was too tired to cook. Still having snacks. Still living a NORMAL life. 🔥 Down 26 lbs. But the bigger win was that she reversed her pre-diabetes diagnosis. That's the stuff that actually matters long term. Anyways.. if you've ever told yourself that nothing works for you, or that you're the exception, I just wanted to remind you that you're probably not. You've just never been taught the fundamentals properly. Shoutout coach @Carlos Hellstern for the support! 🫡 Feel free to DM me if you want to lose all your excess body fat, still live your life, and guarantee your results ♥️

Update on my 12 lb weighted vest: I learned real quick that 10–20 minutes is my max right now. My body felt like a truck ran it over 😂 My back was SO sore, so I’m easing it down and dialing it back a bit. For now, I’m wearing it once a day during my walk for about 10–20 minutes max. Of course, my partner had to be a smart ass and said, “You didn’t read the instructions and follow through. That’s why your back is sore.” Me: 🙄 “Whatever, bruh.” Then I told him Coach Darren said it’s actually a good way to enhance strength and burn extra calories — but yes, noted, I need to take it easy. At least I’m challenging myself. And then he stayed quiet 🤫😝 Lesson learned: challenge yourself, but don’t let your ego wear the vest longer than your body is ready for. Question: Have you ever tried something new thinking, “I got this,” and your body humbled you real quick?
