When you want something different, you''ve got to do something different....

 
 
 
 
Lifestyle. What does that mean when someone says "we changed our lifestyle"
Lifestyle is defined as a way a person lives. It is how we spend our time and it's made up of our priorities each day.


In the first photo here's what our life was like :...
🔸We ate out at least twice a week. Pasta pasta pasta
🔸We would sit down on a Friday night and eat a whole pizza, one for each of us. And then do to DQ on top of that
🔸In the evenings we would just sit, and watch TV, we were very inactive
🔸We were both happy, but very tired
🔸I felt self conscious and was pushing size 15/16
🔸I never ate vegetables. I'm serious. I would go DAYS without a single one
🔸Our meals consisted of cheap, fast, convenient foods.
 
 
Now, fast forward to now. This is what our lifestyle looks like:
🔹We eat 95% of our meals at home, and when we go go out, it's not for pasta
🔹In the evenings, we usually go for a walk or bike ride with our kids
🔹We get in at least 30 minutes of exercise each day. Hubby works out at night after kids are in bed, and I wake up in the morning
🔹I finally feel comfortable in my own skin. I never knew I could feel this much better.
🔹I am full of way more energy and don't feel lifeless
🔹Now a size 6/7
🔹I have completely turned my eating around and look at food completely differently. Not something to fill up on to make that rumble in my stomach go away, but to make sure I'm getting all my food groups in each day so I FEEL my best. Food isn't a filler for me anymore, it's for nutrition



We went from a seditary lifestyle, to one that is active, and now we have more energy. We also went from quick, fast, fake and convenient foods to meals that are full of nutrition, clean and close to its natural source and now we are healthy.

We were willing to give up a lot of unhealthy habits in order to gain a new healthy way of living and I'm so glad we did. I never thought we could feel so great. In order to GET something different we needed to DO something different, and we did just that
Are you ready? What are you willing to trade ? What will your action of something different be?
