Day 1/21: "If you don't love your body before, you won't love your body after. It's your body. Adore it at every weight." . Today is day one of my program. This is my before picture. Compared to my last progress picture I posted I'm "softer", not as toned and have a few more scars. . My body had a very hard job over the last month. It was helping heal following surgery. And then the head cold I got following surgery. I let it rest and it did such a great job. . Our bodies are always changing, adapting, healing and growing. It's so important to love yourself every step of the way. Appreciate the amazing things your body is capable of. . #MotivationMonday #21daysofhope #21dayprogram #loveyourbody #loveyourself #loveyourscars #yourbodyisamazing #healing #recovering #adapting #growing #workoutprogram #progresspics #endometriosis #endosurgery #endowarrior #keeppushing #keepmovingforward #kindafit (at New Hampshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs64aoylMEc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1qtf21jvjrdp4

No make up. No filter. Natural crazy hair. Just me. 🙋🏼‍♀️ . After not feeling great yesterday I made today all about self care. I took a long hot shower. Shaved my legs. Did a face mask. Painted my nails. Drank a ton of water. Read a book. Watched some TV. . I'm taking advantage of these last few days to rest and recover before I head back to work on Monday. 🙈 . I know it'll be a rude awakening but I am looking forward to getting back into a routine and get back to helping people! . What are your favorite ways to practice self care? 💕 . #allnatural #nomakeup #nofilter #crazyhair #crazywaves #blondehair #blueeyes #bathroomselfie #selfcare #selfcareisnotselfish #selfcareisnecessary #resting #recovering #endometriosis #endo #endosurgery #ilovereading #backtoworksoon #dpt #physicaltherapist #physicaltherapy #doctorofphysicaltherapy https://www.instagram.com/p/BsO6lmblcfY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1n61aluju1xpi

That feeling when you complete your 8 week program and you're feeling wicked strong! 🎉 . My goal was to complete the program before my surgery tomorrow and I did! I haven't been super great with my eating lately but I'm happy with the progress I've made! . Stick to your goals, even when you don't see the changes day to day. In the end you'll be so proud of yourself and you'll FEEL better and that's worth all the work! . #finishedmyprogram #8weekprogram #8weeks #endometriosis #endo #endosurgery #meetinggoals #feelingbetter #feelingstronger #dontgiveup #keeppushing #kindafit https://www.instagram.com/p/BrocwhLlfbV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5mia5fsyijpf

Day 21/21: It takes 21 days to make a habit. . This is what 21 days of sticking to a meal plan, working out, and keeping goals in mind looks like! . It was nerve-wracking starting to workout again after my surgery but I'm so glad that I was able to get back into it! . Are you ready to take the first step toward meeting your goals? 💪🏻😊 . #21daysofhope #21dayprogram #progresspics #postsurgical #endometriosiswarrior #endosurgery #laproscopicsurgery #gettingbackintoit #beyourownwomancrush #workingtowardgoals #kindafit (at New Hampshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt19AAZlTgq/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=lx11fbbmut3h

Things I've noticed since I haven't been able to workout. . 1) I'm not sleeping well 2) I'm more tired 3) I'm not drinking enough water 4) I'm not eating as well 5) I'm breaking out more 6) I'm feeling lazy 7) I'm feeling more anxious . These are just a few things. I am hoping this week my lifting restrictions are lifted and I'll be able to get back to my workouts! They keep me in my solid routine and keep me on track with my healthy lifestyle. . I have been working harder on my mental and emotional health. I have noticed some big changes and I couldn't be happier! 😊 . Living a healthy lifestyle isn't just about physical fitness and eating healthy. It's about getting into a better mindset and growing self love. . #selfcare #healthylifestyle #healthymindset #selflove #changes #selfawareness #endosurgery #liftingrestrictions #frustratedbutnotquitting #bettermindset #underarmour #GetLeanIn2019 #kindafit https://www.instagram.com/p/BsoxK3nlVqg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1t6trm77k3tc9

Feeling amped up and strong! . It's the final countdown! I have TWO workouts left to my 8 week program! I haven't been 100% with my eating (patients keep bringing us treats and I'm a sucker for cookies 🤷🏼‍♀️ #kindafit) . It's also the final countdown to surgery! It's sneaking right up on me and I'm nervous but I'm also confident it'll go well. I've been working on my strength to make sure recovery goes as well as possible. . Y'all are being blessed with one of my ridiculous sweaty selfies I post in my group. Funny face. Crazy hair. Flexin' on these hoes. (jk they're not hoes they're lovely ladies) .

Day 4/21: This level of inflexibility is embarrassing both as a Physical Therapist as well as a former dancer! 🙈 . After being laid up mostly on the couch and in bed for two weeks following surgery then not being able to workout for two more weeks really got be tightened up! . Now that I'm back on the up and up, one of my goals is to focus on taking time to stretch every day. I can't just preach it to my patients anymore! I need to talk the talk and walk the walk! 😂 . Anyone else need some help in the stretching department?! 🙋🏼‍♀️ . #stretch #inflexibility #notcurrentlyflexible #recovering #gettingbackintoit #endometriosiswarrior #endosurgery #loosenup #physicaltherapist #physicaltherapy #dpt #kindafit (at New Hampshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtChIYslg5W/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=vlxmbf48j8ja

Day 1 back at work was a great success! . I am SO lucky to work with amazing people who help me along the way. Having this 15lb lifting restriction has been very eye opening! I can see things from my patients' perspective a little bit better now. . This experience is making me stronger and more creative in my treatment approach! It's keeping me on my toes and helping me pay attention to my own body and positioning too. . Having a great support system is key in new and challenging times in life. Having my girls in the #GetLeanIn2019 group are keeping me on track with my eating and water intake right now. I know they'll help get me back into my workouts when I'm cleared to too!... Come join us and kick off your year on the right foot! . #endosurgery #recovering #laproscopicsurgery #endometriosis #liftingrestrictions #eyeopening #growing #dpt #physicaltherapist #physicaltherapy #creativetreatments #supportsystemiskey #amazingsupportsystem #lovemypeople #kindafit https://www.instagram.com/p/BsWwcS7lvJi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=haccotp41u25
