I just love how you take angled photographs & hide your gut behind tight workout shorts and you pass it off like you've changed anything at all. Commit to a real lifestyle change that works, get off your ass, & post a real before and after instead of this pathetic crap where you gained 3lbs from your last one but you want to write a long message about your amazing journey. The only ones impressed are the people too stupid to realize you're angling your face and body differently.

Oh a REAL lifestyle change. I guess you mean like exercising regularly and sticking with that for 8+ weeks. Because I did that.

Or a lifestyle change so real that it brings your resting heart rate down from an unhealthy level to a good one. Did that too.

Or maybe the dedication to walk/jog the distance of the Serengeti desert?

Or 50k steps in one single day? About 7 hours of exercise and 20+ miles? Because I did that also.

The kind of lifestyle change where you feel sooo good and healthy that you know a number on a square can’t tell you everything and small changes are enough and you love your body anyway?

Babe, I don’t know why my immensely impressive goal getting in the past few months is so upsetting to you, and I don’t know why you’re bothered by me trying to uplift others, but my journey is impressive and inspiring whether you like what my scale has to say about it or not. I’d rather Gain all of that than lose 3 lbs. Don’t you worry about what me and my “gut” do because with all the time you spent thinking about me and my fat ass slaying this shit up and down there’s no way you had time to be crossing the Serengeti. Have a wonderful day.

Here is a promise, and a fact: you will never, in your life, ever have to deal with anything more than the next minute. However much it feels like you are approaching an event where, if you screw it up, the entire future will just burn to hell in front of you and you will end: you are not. That will never happen. That is not what happens. The minutes always come one at a time, inside days that come one at a time - all orderly strung, like pearls on a necklace, suspended in a graceful line. You will never, ever, have to deal with more than the next 60 seconds. Do the calm, right thing that needs to be done in that minute. The work, or the breathing, or the smile. You can do that, for just one minute. And if you can do a minute, you can do the next.

Something about this really resonated with me and I wanted to share.

I want to say to all the young women out there…there are going to be people along the way who will try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame, but if you just focus on the work and you don’t let those people sidetrack you, someday when you get where you’re going you’ll look around and you will know it was you and the people who love you who put you there and that will be the greatest feeling in the world.

She credits her height—a good six foot seven in heels—for one thing: “You can get to the bar easier. You can catch the bar person’s eye, and mouth what you want, and by the time you’re there you’ve got it. I’m like a human plow. I also have a selfie-stick arm. To get the same angle as I get with my selfie arm, you’d need a crane.”

Really pushed myself today so was really pleased to almost complete the 100 waist whittlers challenge! Just had to take a couple of short breaks, but otherwise I did it :)
