this oneās an emotional oneā¦
the above comparison means a lot more to me then what people might think.
that is 3 years of hard work, determination and most importantly discipline.
yes the physical transformation speaks for itself but the mental shift iāve had over the past 3 years is what is most important to me.
3 years ago, i had no confidence, no self belief, nothing to really work toward. i would always train in oversized t shirts, not ever wanting to show off my body because i was ashamed of how i looked.
fast forward to now, i canāt even remember the last time i trained in a t shirt. not because i need validation or praise, but because iāve finally learned to accept myself, to back myself and to take up space.
i OWN the way i look now, but more importantly, i own who i am becoming. i could not be more proud of how far iāve come over the past 6 months, let alone the past 3 years.
this isnāt just āluckā or āmotivationā. itās the days no one sees. the days i didnāt want to show up but did anyway. the constant choosing of discipline over excuses. i have never been more committed to something then what i am with bodybuilding. i now have a purpose, confidence, self belief and most importantly a sense of home.
and the best part? iām nowhere near finished. š¤
