I did it, guys! I really did it!

My goal for the summer was to get my squat to or above my body weight, and I did it today!! Weighed in at 137 and squatted 140 for 3 reps. :D

When I started I didn't expect...

That I would actually almost always be the only and youngest girl at the gym That protien and pre-workout would be more essential to my daily life than showers How much my wardrobe would change- I own two normal shirts, one pair of jeans, and a skirt everything else is workout clothes All the confidence I have now

I never expected

I could go so long without washing my hair (and learn so many sexy dirty-hair styles)

How tired I could get from changing up my workout routine once

Using up all my mobile data on Nike+Spotify runs

My two-year-old telling me not to go work out because she’d miss me <3

No Weigh May 14

I've been doing no weigh may even though I'm horrible at updating yall. I'm really trying to stay away from scales because they make me feel horrible about myself. However, this month has been amazing for me. Yesterday I wore shorts out and about for the first time in a while and I looked in the mirror and realised that I am 10000% happy with my body. I still have so much I need to improve on but I've realised that it's no longer about fixing the bad stuff about me, it's about growing in the good stuff. My biceps have grown an inch in the past week and I'm pretty sure my quads have too.

I don't know what I weigh and I don't care what I weigh, I love my reflection and the way lifting is transforming my body.

Post work-out selfie for NWM and water-drinking selfie for Water Wednesday. Two birds, one stone!

And look at those collarbones!!
