I had a small bout of discouragement yesterday because my body is not changing as quickly as I’d like. These workouts I’ve been doing are far more intense then what I would do on a regular basis, so it’s hard to bust your butt and not see results the next day. I keep reminding myself to be patient and that change takes time. This is a marathon not a sprint, although I hope to see results soon! My meal planning has been on point, but I will continue to focus the next few days and be happy with my results whatever they may be.
Do you suffer from discouragement and not reaching your goals as quickly as you’d like?
