Do You Care More About Body Function or Body Image?

Let me get this straight...

You’re seriously telling me you care more about how your body LOOKS than how it FUNCTIONS?!

How’s that going for you so far?

Tell me...

Are you tired? Lacking energy to finish your day? Missing workouts because you’re too exhausted? Improperly fueling yourself to get that #bikinibod for #hotgirlsummer ?

Now answer me this...

When you’re 80, do you want to remember all the times you’ve enjoyed yourself with friends and family and reminisce over all the fun you had, or are you never going to have those stories because you’re skipping experiences because of how you look or feel? Or maybe you’ll have the stories but they’ll be marred by the discomfort you have in your own body to fully enjoy yourself in the moment...?

Is life really worth living that way?

I used to think it was. I’ll admit, at one point in my life, looks were way more important to me than living. Seeing my six pack was more important than spending time with friends. I didn’t notice how tired I was, how sick I was getting, how much damage I was doing to my body, until it was almost too late.

Then I had my wake up call and realized ... life is about living. Not about STORIES about living.

I wanted to be IN the moment, not near it.

I wanted to EXPERIENCE life, not be afraid of it.

So I changed my trajectory, and focused less on calories. Less on foods. Less on what others thought.

And now I’m collecting cool stories to tell anyone and everyone who will listen to me when I’m 80, 90, etc.

What will you choose? 🙌🏼
