I must confess, I was one of those people. I wanted to look perfect and fit in my jeans. I wanted to have my cake and eat it too! No long workouts, no depriving myself of the foods that I loved. It wasn't until after starting my journey with Chalean Extreme that I started to appreciate all the hard work my body could handle. I started really looking at what I was eating and taking it seriously for once. Sure, I had been able to loose a few pounds and get back into my old jeans before. The difference was that with the added effort of lifting weights and sticking to the principles of clean eating, I was seeing my body actually change. I had muscles under all that softness! It was amazing. In one of the workouts, Chalene actually says, "I've got your magic pill right here baby!" You know what? I believe she is right. There is nothing I have found quite as satisfying, personally, than accomplishing the full 90 days of a workout program. Being able to cross off one workout after another and watching the inches on the measuring tape go down month after month. My "magic pill" has allowed me to loose 10 pounds and 20 inches since January! Who knew?! Now, let's be honest, am I striving for perfection? No. What I am striving for is a healthy, fit and toned body that will allow me the joy and freedom to enjoy life. This does, however, include finding a pair of jeans that fit me right!
It's all about telling yourself you are going to do something and actually doing it. So, are you ready to take your magic pill? I believe that we all have the ability to do it, but will we?
My next online challenge group starts July 21, be brave and see what happens!
