I set myself up to fail.. on purpose.
I’m on a self love journey. I’ve seen myself at my leanest, a body that some wish for. I’ve done it I’ve seen it and I’ve let it go with intention.
A lot of bodybuilders develop eating disorders or body dysmorphia after prepping because they want to hold onto the shreds or they find their self worth in the leanness. I want to challenge myself and relearn to love myself in every season of life.
So today I set myself up to fail.
My biggest insecurity is my legs, always has been probably always will. I found a new found confidence when I got stage lean because I got lean legs! Well the weight has come back and I stay relatively lean in my upper body year round but hold my extra weight in my legs. I haven’t worn shorts since last summer. I also believe in dressing for your body, if you don’t like something and you can wear something that makes you feel more confident.. do it!
But I wanted to welcome those negative feelings and work on them. So I packed only the shortest shorts I’ve got that I haven’t had a chance to wear yet.. and I forced myself to wear them!
At first I was at the hotel and the lighting was good and I was hyping myself up, cant turn back now! Then I got to the gym and I wanted to run! The lighting was horrible and I could see even dimple and insecurity..
Here comes the challenge… every time a negative thought crossed my mind I immediately said a compliment. I also forced myself to keep my chin held high and ooze fake confidence. I was not going to let it break me.
Then the real magic happened…
