Do you love your story?

I remember the day I was crying in the shower because I was doing all the things and was only getting worse.

I was 240+lbs, my size 22 jeans couldn't zip at all but even worse my breathing was getting scary with all the weight on my chest. 

I was exhausted and discouraged from getting up before my 5 kids to work out, and planning meals, counting calories and macros, etc and was only gaining weight and having more health problems.

 So I asked my body to release the weight without diet and exercise
Well I didn't ask, I pleaded. And I can't even begin to explain what happened next.
But I will try.
 
All the hope that I felt sucked out of me over the years had hit me all at once in that moment as I sobbed. I didn't know how but I chose in that moment to trust.
 
Then, I remember the day shortly after when I had released 20lbs and I asked my body again to keep it up. It sounded so ridiculous to even say it. Was the 20lbs just a fluke? How dare I think I could do the opposite of what everyone else does? All I knew is that the way I had done it for years wasn’t working. 

 But once again, I was overwhelmed with this feeling of excitement and just knowing it would happen as I had this conversation with my body in tears. 
"Body, Lets show the world it's possible.
All the moms that feel discouraged and feel they are at the end of the rope. The moms who are tired from the pressure of workouts and diets that aren’t helping them like they aren’t me anymore. 
All the women who have carried trauma and abuse.
All the women who have felt their bodies betrayed them and are angry but carrying grief and shame. 
Lets show them they can heal, that they can release the heaviness but also let's show them that they can thrive!!"
 
As I said this to my body, I felt this energy, I again don't even know how to explain it. I just knew it would happen. 
 
Then I released 80lbs and I asked my body to continue to work with me to do 100lbs even though we had never been the size it would make us, I just knew we could do it now TOGETHER!
 
And that is what my body and I did
We released 100lbs in just 13 months!!!
And this is still one of my favorite comparison pictures I shared when that moment happened!

 **And It doesn't stop there! I am now in size 0/2 women's and 1/3 in Juniors and smaller now than before my 5 children. 
 That is just a tiny bit of my story over the last 3 years, but it is freaking amazing!!!
 
AND I love my story
 
Do you love your story or are you stuck in outcome only?
When you get to your desired outcome, can you say you loved your story or are you resentment of the story and holding onto too tightly to the outcome hoping it will save you?

If you get to your outcome but you aren't happy with you or your story, you will sabotage and your results will not remain. You won't maintain your results and most likely will find something else wrong, even though you got to the goal. 

Stop chasing the goal, heal the root, love the story and outcome, so you can continue loving the next chapter of your story! This is so important to continue your story with so much joy and excitement!
