🔥TUESDAY TRANSFORMATION🔥
❗️READ THE CAPTION ❗️
I hate looking back at these pictures and it upsets me, but there’s a few things I have to say...
Now I know a lot of the time progress pics get quite a lot of backlash but I really do believe pictures can convey more than words describe. Yes a physical transformation is apparent but to me, this progress pic represents a mental transformation too.
Back then (and even now) I always heard: carbs make you fat, eating foods containing fat makes you fat, eating sugary fruits (😭), cake, chocolate, egg yolks, white rice, white bread and practically every other food that constitutes a normal diet make you gain weight/ be unhealthy. And I didn’t want to be overweight and felt guilty eating these ‘bad’ foods. So I stopped eating them. And what was basically left of my diet? Chicken, fat free yoghurt, vegetables and low carb bread. That really was IT. What I didn’t know however, was that no certain food just makes you overweight - you don’t bite a piece of chocolate and wake up the next day X stone heavier. No no no it really doesn’t work like that.
Unfortunately, for some reason, no one wants to tell you that the only thing that makes you gain weight is a caloric intake higher than your maintenance calories. Therefore, because I was in a major caloric deficit every single day, I got to a place I never intended on getting to.
Moral of the story here: eat all the goddamn foods, there’s nothing wrong with them. You should consume foods that taste AND make YOU FEEL GOOD, without having a negative annotation to them because these foods ARENT BAD FOR YOU in moderation! You deserve that. You also deserve to actually enjoy life and not focus on making yourself ‘smaller’ and constantly focus on ‘losing weight’. Losing weight isn’t what makes you ‘fit and healthy’, as CLEARLY demonstrated here. And most of all, eat the goddamn CAKE 🥲.
Anyways, I’m not gonna dwell to much on past me, but I think it’s important to sometimes take your hat off to yourself and say congrats.
CI FIT gang are smashing it!
