How you do one thing is how you do EVERYthing. Doing the “boring” things over and over and over again until it becomes who you are. I thought I was changing my body, turns out I was rebuilding my MIND. 160 > 145. What “should’ve” taken me 2 -3 months took me over a year. Slipping, falling off, self depricating, healing sh*t beliefs, starting over, and forcing consistency when motivation was litrly inexistent. we’re just getting started 😚
