I’ve lost 40lbs in 8 months — these are 3 painfully hard lessons I had to learn  1. Nobody is going to do it for you. Literally no one. You can continue feeling sorry for yourself or you can decide today that you are going to show up as the person you want to be. For yourself and your family. 2. Your dream physique is going to require a bunch of boring stuff. You’re going to repeat the same movements, eat similar meals, train when motivation is gone, add a rep here, add a little weight there, sleep, recover, and then repeat for months, and then years. 3. You can talk all you want about how badly you want it, but until you actually learn to keep promises to yourself and do what you say you’re going to do, nothing will change.
