Plus Size Fitness

I have always been very open about my fitness journey as well as trying to be as honest as I can about my experience working out as a beginner .

I am not by far any means a wellness coach / fitness instructor or what not . I try to do what’s best to my ability and knowledge and I try to make sure that

1) I am not comparing my journey to anyone else’s. I have been out of commission working for 2 months and I slacked off entirely. I got busy with work , ministry and other personal things. And so, going to the gym was on my “ IM TIRED LIST” !!😮‍💨

I worked long hours as a teacher and now I’m doing summer camp and baby , ya girl be whipped !!!

But nonetheless it is not an excuse for me to completely slack off. So Starting tomorrow I am officially off my hiatus and back to the grind . I miss lifting , and being able to see my body transform and change . Dropping from a size 24 in jeans to a size 20/22 was not even close to me firing into a XL in skirts and etc. so before I get to far gone I’m getting back up and making sure I hold myself accountable.

2 months isn’t bad but that’s to long to be on a hiatus 🤦🏽‍♀️🥺🙁So now it’s GRIND TIME 🏋🏽‍♀️#beginnerfitnessjourney #newfitnessjourney #startmyfitnessjourney #startingafitnessjourney #blackgirlweightloss #bodytransformation #healthylifestyle

... Read moreEmbarking on a fitness journey can be daunting, particularly for those who identify as plus size. Many individuals find themselves overwhelmed by the societal pressures and comparisons often made in fitness spaces. Understanding that your journey is unique and personal to you is essential. It's important to set realistic goals based on your abilities, focusing on gradual progress rather than drastic changes. Engaging in activities like walking, yoga, or resistance training can greatly enhance your physical health while boosting your confidence and body image. Moreover, seeking community support, whether through online forums or local groups, can provide encouragement and motivation. Additionally, nutrition plays a crucial role in the fitness journey. It's not only about exercise but also about fueling your body with the right foods that promote energy and recovery. Consult with a nutritionist to tailor a diet that suits your lifestyle without feeling restrictive. Remember, consistency is key—celebrate small victories along the way! This journey is not merely about transforming your body but also fostering a healthier mindset that embraces self-love and acceptance.
