Lessons learned from weight gain.
I lost 100+ pounds earlier this year. Throughout the pandemic, I surprisingly remained the same. Now, thinking about myself, I put on some pounds. Did I take three steps forward and two steps back?
No. I realized what I did was not take any steps back at all - I moved forward.
If you stop progressing, then you don't necessarily regress. Instead, you stop until you decide to start again.
How empowering it must feel to realize that you can decide to start again. If you want it, you can do it - just decide to act.
I've learned lessons from gaining a few pounds. Learnings that I'll apply to other areas of my life.
Stopping doesn't mean ending or falling behind. It means being in the moment where you get to decide to start again.
But this time - better.
