Whenever you start to see a change in your body, does it motivate you to work harder, push harder, train harder? I've started to see a change in my body and it has not only given me more motivation but also more confidence. This past week I accomplished a butterfly sit up, its been something I had been struggling with since day one. It amazed me how one thing could make me feel like I could move mountains. It just takes that one step to start making a change. But you have to be the one to get up and go.
I won't lie this weeks meal prepping took me a little longer. I just love cooking and I enjoy being prepared for the week. It makes things less stressful trying to figure what to eat.
