DO NOT BE CONTROLLED BY OTHERS.

It's easy to let your mind wander off to what others think of your body...

No one but YOU has the right to an opinion on your body.

If you are working on changing your appearance, make sure you have the right reasons in mind.

Ultimately...

You want to be STRONG.

You want to be HEALTHY.

You want to be RESILIENT.

AND, most importantly, you want to be HAPPY.

I'll argue this one 'til I'm blue in the face: mindset is the biggest component of nutrition and fitness.

Be kind and gracious with yourself now and throughout your journey - your progress will prove the benefits. 💛
