100% Real With Ruby; no #BS nutrition, fitness & psychology - A podcast by Ruby Cherie - Fridays
WE ALL CRAVE A GOOD AFTER PHOTO...Social media is far from realityAnd it should NOT be what you strive for..Most of you have the most warped idea of what IS realistic, sustainable & PERCEPTION OF TIME.Motivation doesn't last. The newbie effect doesn't lastIt'll be easier for a few weeks or a couple monthsMaybe see some results...Then what? Life happensOr you open the flood gates with icecream, wine, crisps, snacking....Time passes and now you REGAIN FAT😰Mostly around your midsection😰If youre an on and off dieter, you're PRIMED to hoard fatcells🥵 hormones & metabolism are tanked2 ways to look at progress1. Time to create the best garden...Your best friend visits 2 months laterYouve hyped up the garden, All the effort into planting the best crop, finding and buying the best soil, etcetc...But nothing... some weeds, some flowers that once existed bc you did put in some effort...But the gardening was slack.Wanting a garden to transform wont happen without consistent gardening. Which doesnt mean perfect, if you skip a day, garden is fine....2. You finally hire a finance advisorCool, you have someone to help your $$ issues nowA few months later you realise youre still in the same debt.. maybe moreJust because you set intentions for the end goal and hire help, doesnt mean things fall into place. Are you making the tradeoffs...The daily lattes, weekend eats out, uber eats, random unnecessary spends?Do you even check the price tag? (Calories)Or if its a speed buy it doesnt count, its only a few dollarsIt racks upLike your snacks, licks, tastes, sips, bits and bobsEspecially as a female... even more if you have a desk jobThere is so much more to progress than the scales, photos etcOnly focusing there will have you give up. What's the point...Invest for at least a year into building your best self. To set yourself up for life ....Instead of asking ‘how quickly can I see results?"Ask yourself“how can I keep them & make PERMANENT progress?”What’s the point in getting any resultslosing any weightif you cant maintain the progress you make?🚨there's ZERO point obsessing or stressing over your timeline& how fast you see changeif you don’t know how to even maintain it 👀or even learn how to enjoy making it part of your lifestyleAIM FOR CONSISTENCY✅Steady the ship first... then sail...✅ with PATIENCE ✅😬If you don't have something beyond a scale or after photo 😬If you arent making the PROCESS your focus w/ ACTION BASED GOALS😬if you don't become the person who can maintain& live it...Believing you can... & enjoying life too...❓the after photo wont matter bc it wont last.Need some help with this?💓I'm right here :) let's goooo!!!
