Never forget where you started, even when you feel like you’re not making progress.

While I am walking on the treadmill I am taking a moment to reflect on the my weight loss journey..

In 12 days it marks 2 years since I started this thing..
And while my brain tells me that I’ve come a long way from the day I started, it also tells me that I’ve fell short of my goal. While most times I shake it off and say, ‘common now it’s your bipolar mind talking’, it’s also time to realize reality and think if I wanted something so hard and cracked down, I could’ve achieved it.

Why am I sharing this? I’ve always been transparent the last two years and I’ll never stop being. My goal since day one was to motivate a friend, a family member, a stranger, someone.. but I wouldn’t be exactly transparent to not tell you that this journey is not all butterflies and rainbows. Have I sat in my car questioning if I really had to go to the gym that day? Of course I have. Have I told myself you work 70 hours a week and deserve to skip today’s afternoon gym session? Of course I have. Did I listen to the discipline and not the motivation? Of course I did. Did I go to the gym twice a day for 150 days? Of course I did.

As I reflect back on my weight loss journey and try to criticize myself for what I’ve done and not done, I also recognize how far that I have come, and continue to be better day by day or mile by mile. Each step is creating someone there wasn’t. Someone who can breathe clearer, someone who can actually run a full mile, who can be better than they were yesterday.

My fiance Samantha who deals with the rollercoaster of second guessing my self worth, my mom Christine telling me she’s proud of me even when I feel like I’m failing, my brother Russell telling me it’s not scary to lift and hearing about my body changing the way I want it to at least once a week, and my friends on here who take the time to read this, are all the reason I have made it this far in this journey. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you! Everyday and every step gets a little easier with y’all. 🙏🏻 by @builtbysackett

If I’m being transparent, as I always have in my weight loss journey- I didn’t even wanna post this. But I promised myself that I would come on here and post a photo once per day to hold myself accountable and to hopefully motivate somebody one day to start their fitness journey. I wasn’t feeling myself today and again if I’m being honest, I have been stressed out with work and inventory coming up. But here’s a photo of my friends to show you exactly what to do when you feel like that you’re not enough. You SHOW up. Because you ARE WORTH IT. by @builtbysackett
