Share your past unrealistic goals below!
Oh, how many unrealistic goals I’d set in the throws of hating my body.
Going from not working out >> I’m going to work out 4-5x/week…
Cutting out sugar completely…
Cooking all of my meals from scratch…
Setting unrealistic short-term goals, or trying to do a complete quick overhaul typically doesn’t last.
What does last is making small, realistic changes whilst practicing self-compassion and accepting that for *most* people, we don’t have the resources (like a personal chef, personal trainer, abundant amounts of free time, etc.) to make the changes we may like. This is what our brain prefers!!
And of course- we have to always acknowledge the role that social determinants of health play in our health & wellbeing, and that it’s not ALL our individual responsibility. We (for the most part) can’t control our genes, the air quality, our trauma hx, etc- all of which impact our health.
If you’re ready to let go of trying to shame yourself into feeling better in your body and supporting your health, reach out at the l!nk !n b!0 .
You’re not alone!
