Anyone else still getting texts/emails about losing weight fast? I'm taking 20+ lbs in a month fast! Because I am & I don't know if I could hate anything more.
I remember in my 20’s, in the thick of social media everywhere I looked I read “lose 20lbs in 20 days.” I was running the trails by Woodward, 6 miles a day, eating nothing by iceberg lettuce and cottage cheese.
I was following a popular influencer who always said “don’t hesitate to reach out!” I still to this day support this influencer and use her products on the daily but I was so disappointed when I didn't hesitate and reached out to her.
She seemed so nice and genuine in all her posts, then I messaged her. I couldn’t lose weight to save my life! What did she ask me? She asked what my diet was. I responded “I eat clean” and she told me there is no such thing. What I heard from her was “you're a complete failure.”
Fast forward 10+ years and years of education later, I realize I WASTED HER TIME! But I also wasted my own time too! I was stuck in a social media mindset but I also didn’t do anything to help myself. People, we have Google at our fingertips!!!! (yes this can be an evil search engine if you don't know how to properly use it).
Why did I fall for the “eat clean” fad of weight loss? Because social media presence is huge. People watch and want what others have. STOP IT!!! We are so very unique. Each of us needs something different. We are not cookie cutters.
🍽️✨ Your body, your journey.
What works for one person’s weight loss might not work for another — and that’s perfectly okay.There’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to health. Genetics, lifestyle, preferences, and goals all play a role. Don’t compare — customize. 💪🏽
Find what fuels you — physically and mentally. Your path is unique, and that’s your power. 🔥
& OBVIOUSLY, I'm trying to sneak in the focus here on other people's time. I will always address your messages BUT if you are not willing to change, then it's not the right time for a chat. If your responding about being stuck in your current ways with no willingness to change, then it's not time for us to be having that current conversation. When your ready to make some adjustments, let’s chat!
⏰ Respect is also shown in how we treat others’ time.
Being mindful of someone else’s time is a simple but powerful way to show consideration.
