What I say to myself when I’m having a bad body image day👇🏻
⠀
If I’m having a particularly bloated day,
rather than falling victim to the:
“I need to lose some weight”
thought-trap,
I try to combat my emotions🙇🏻♀️
with science🧬
⠀
I didn’t actually gain 3 pounds of fat overnight.
⠀
Instead,
💧I am likely retaining water from:
💧high sodium intake,
💧inflammation,
💧poor digestion,
💧stress,
💧or more carbs than my body needed...
⠀
....but I don’t need to cut my calories or do 2 hours of cardio to make up for it (been there before, can confirm: does not play out well)
⠀
I just need to make better food, hydration, and movement choices, because I know I feel 🤘🏼incredible🤘🏼 when I do.
⠀
Nothing resets your motivation like wanting to get back to feeling your best!!!
