Goofing around with the fabulous she was trying to teach me how to show off my leg gains🦵🤣 I am so so proud of how far I have come by just being intentional about myself 😍😍💪💪💪

Happy weekend everyone

So this is my grocery shopping for the week

On my list👇👇
Irish potatoes (for my big champ)
Sweet potatoes(me)
Carrots
Lettuce
Apple
Spring onions
Eggs (I will add fish and meat tomorrow by God's grace(either chicken or beef,I don't know yet,my accant will determine my choice🤣))
Green beans
Bread (round for the moms, flat for the rest of the family)

I typically have light meals for breakfast which is around 12 noon-2pm (except on days I wake up very hungry), fruits in between, take my heaviest meal around 6pm(I find that this helps to reduce my cravings for late night junk).

May God provide for everyone this season because I was just thinking pe Nigeria is nigerianing, cost of living has doubled, daily billings are still steady. We will live in abundance in Jesus name Amen.

Mummy with the leg 🦵 gains 😍

I decided to do a lirru cardio today as I am trying to cut down a bit(lose 2 kg and maintain 70kg), I have been the same weight 72kg for the past one month.

As a mom, gym time is my me time, that's when I get to forget all my responsibilities and just channel all my energy into being a better,stronger me.

I also find that I am currently enjoying working out at night, my gym buddies make gym life so much fun😍

I don't want to go on this stronger/fitter journey alone. What can I do to encourage as many as I can to get stronger?

Should I share what my daily routine is like? Should we bring back monthly challenges? We can start with jump rope for a month to encourage ourselves to move or what do you think? Only me cannot be popping oo, I need ya'all to pop as well 😍😍 let's scatter IG with beautiful,stronger bodies. What do you think? Are you game?

Wondering why people would pay thousands of naira for gym subscription and only stick to the threadmill machine.🤔🤔

Why??? Why you do that? Why are you afraid of lifting weights or asking questions? Ladies, lifting weights will not make you masculine.

Fun fact is my body has really transformed since I started lifting weights. More like it is being sculptured. My metabolism has also increased (this was the main reason I switched to the gym), my cravings for junk has also reduced (I can't be exerting energy lifting weights and be eating rubbish😩) and best of all, I am a lot stronger than when I started 3 weeks ago💪💪💪

Night gym geng 😍😍

Monthly 50km goal completed

Today was more of a survival walk than run. My limbs are so tired, I have been slacking in my pre and post run stretching so that's the goal for today.

On a lighter note, I am 4kg lighter than when I started and 👇👇👇👇 is what I currently do asides from running (I don't have energy for workouts these days and that's totally fine)

1. I drink more water. Abuja is currently very hot so it's just a perfect way to stay hydrated.

2. My breakfasts tend to be very light, I start with my tea, then some days I have bread and eggs or oats, smoothies, custard depending on how hungry I am.

3. Heavier meals are often in the afternoons or say 2,3 hours after my first meals.

4. Dinner most days are very light, if I must have anything heavy, it will be very small.

5. Because I am team zero wasting food, I make allowances for my Bubba's leftovers (the ones I can eat sha, mothers can relate to this, you know I am always real herr🤣 except of course the food is a mess or spoilt, I never ever trash food )

6. I definitely added more fruits and vegetables to our diet and loving it, the difference is I am losing the weight and a certain 3 year old is getting rounder😥🤣😭

Finally and most important,

7. I listen to my body and do me. I don't subscribe to fadd diets and I am all about building sustainable habits over a period of time. I don't care how long it takes, I just want something that will work for me

I hope this inspires someone to put in the work. Trust me I have tonnnsss of stuff on my plate now but because I want to love who i see in my mirror/I want to be healthy all round, I show up💪

Thank you for reading my Ted talk. Xx

Steadily creating new habits
Learning consistency and determination
Improving overall strength and agility

Am I always motivated? Heck no, most days I want to snooze but because I want to look into my mirror and love who i see there, I want to fit properly into the type of outfits that I like, best of all, I want to be healthy, strong and in the best version of myself, I show up and commit to the process.

First step is to determine that you want to move and the next step is push yourself to move whether you feel like it or not.

Happy hump day people, I am definitely set for the upcoming 5km run 💃💃💃💃
