The struggle is real.

As glad as I am that I getting a workout in, I’m doing moves that once upon a time were easier. Every time I do them, it’s honestly a bit of a painful reminder of this weight gain. I’m going to finish, but it sometimes feels like this won’t ever get easier. #comeonabs

Hi SaraMarie! I´m quite sore this morning as well but for me it´s a reminder that I really pushed myself during my workout. Exercising shouldn´t hurt but if you have a specific goal (other than getting back into exercising) it should be hard. So maybe it just means you´re doing something right? Always remember though: as healthy and wonderful as exercise is, most of weightloss happens in the kitchen.

I’m a bit sore but I’m fine with that! Yes, I’ve always heard that weight loss is mostly nutrition. That’s an area where I’m also trying to work on. It’s tough but I know that my efforts will pay off in the end!

How about using the Daily Diary, where members log their meal plans for the day ahead. Have a browse and join in when you're ready. It's posted each evening and this is the current one healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh...
