It takes time. Be Patient it will happen over time. Good things come to those who wait. AM I the only person who doesn't want to hear this when I am going through something? I understand that it takes time. Or well I thought that I did. And then I started working out. I would workout and get upset at not being able to make it through an entire minute without getting winded. I would workout and weigh myself right afterwards. No Progress. Well Duh! I was not giving myself time to appreciate my journey. The small accomplishments that come from continuing day after day. I began to become frustrated with myself and I had to take a step back and look at what I was doing. The stress of not seeing change was not helping me along at all.
I expressed my concerns and frustrations to my coach and she said "Girl, this is not going to happen over night! Keep working hard! Keep eating right. Give it time you will see improvement." I wasn't sure and at that time I was ready to throw the towel in like I had done many times before. But instead I gave myself time and kept busting my behind for thirty minutes a day!
After time I began to allow myself to appreciate the small things I was improving. Instead of having to modify certain moves I began to do them without modification. I would do Burpees (a move I hate!!!) with no problems.
I was so encouraged! Over time I was no longer running to the scale. I began to look for those small NSV (Non-scale Victories). Working out was something that I began to look forward to even with knowing that there were no Quick Results in my future!!!
And this gets me through Everyday!!!
