Be kind and sensible with what you say to others ❤

What other people see and comment-

"Wow, you have gained lot of weight!"

I want to share this, especially to mothers. We all understand how much we want to get back to our pre-baby bodies, and poor or badly timed comments from others could easily bring us down. Our hormones is doing most of the talking after giving birth. I been there....

Why we shouldn't compare ourself to others

Why we shouldn't compare ourself to others

Have you ever think of while you want to be look like someone, as strong as others, as slim as others, there are also someone want to look like you? As a woman and mother, I can say it is quite challenging to keep up to the society standards!!! But the fact is, have you look back a few years or few months ago, how far you have come to? Not necessarily appearance wise, your mental health, your overall health, how confident you feel etc. There is no such thing as " Perfect weight " Or "Perfect body Shape" if all you do is " Comparing yourself to someone else". You have to understand those models and celebrities you are admiring they have professionals watching their diet and train closely, oh and don't forget angle and filters too!

In my opinion, perfect weight and perfect body shape is when you look into the mirror, feel confident about yourself, you can see how far you have come to, you feel good and healthy, you have adapt your lifestyle into your role( between work, family, friends etc) . Of course setting goals is essential, but don't let goals stress you out. If you slip off occasionally don't waste time to blame yourself, instead move on and start a new day.

 

All the best with your journey ❤

 

Lots of love,

Vicky❤

10k steps
8k steps
9 k steps
11 k steps
10 k steps
14 k steps
1 hr low intensity workout
Lots of movement, I move heavy boxes (stock) on a daily basis, taking care of the boys involves lots of movement. Walk the eldest to school, walk back 5 days a week etc
I personally don't recommend to use the scale for measuring progress because that numbers can fluctuate so much with different factors.
Conclusion- I did this experiment to show how numbers on a scale can change in only 7 days with -
1. Eating out x 2 (One night was a feast night), fasting etc. I have seen lots of people are stressing out when their scale number doesn't move or goes up when you are doing your best!I know what it's like, I was one of them too! But guess what? By stressing out "IT DOES NOT HELP YOU TO YOUR GOAL". Find methods and NSV (Non Scale Victory) to keep you motivated and stay focus❤

What scale do you use to measure your goal weight?

What scale do you use to measure your goal weight?

What scale do you use to measure your goal weight?

Goal weight shouldn't determine by numbers but when you look in the mirror and feel, yes, I feel good, I look good, I am at my goal weight.

My goal weight used to be numbers- 50kgs (I am 167 cm tall). I felt I look the best at that weight. Now my goal weight is, the weight that make me feel good and look good, doesn't matter what the numbers is showing.

I always tell others, you can be at your goal weight but I bet you will eventually still want more. I think we have enough stress and things to worry in life, so why not just take this  measurement out 🚫. Instead, substitute in a scale of how happy we are right now. Non scale victory beat those numbers at all time!
