When discussing results, I always tell people, there is no such thing as fast results—either in the gym or on the scale.
Our health is a lifelong process, there are no quick fixes. It's hard to accept but... day in and day out daily decisions are what lead to a healthier life and weight loss.
I thought about this on Saturday when my family was doing a birthday workout. It was a challenging one, to say the least. 25 pullups plus 53 repetitions of 10 exercises.
It was interesting to watch how each person attacked the workout. When they chose to do the burpees (I did them first to get them over with!), as well as when they did the bike (it hurts so much)!
My approach was slow and steady. I wasn't trying to go as hard as I could and rest. I chipped away going slowly and not taking breaks. My kids could not believe it when I told them I was finished. They still had a bit to finish up.
Keep plugging away, day after day, meal after meal. Slow and steady progress will get you feeling amazing in your own skin! It will never happen overnight. In fact, if you try to change too many things at once, it will lead to disastrous results. Believe me, I've seen it many times over the years.
Moral of the story … slow and steady wins!
