April > January
(12 weeks PP > 12 months PP)
What I DIDNT do:
• starve myself
• do bulk cardio
• put pressure on myself
What I DID do:
• ate what my body needed to, to recover and heal
• meditated and focused on my mindset
• patient with my hormones settling
• spoke with a psychologist
• EASEDDDDDD back into weights
This pregnancy was harder this time around. A C section recovery is hard. Waiting for your hormones to do their thing is hard. Being eager to “get back into it” is hard.
There’s no bouncing back. I’m not the same person I was before kids, nor do I want to be. But this time I had the knowledge, patience and was ultimately a LOT kinder to myself which personally, was my saving grace.
Hear that mums? I was KIND to myself. I filled my cup up so I could show up for my daughters the way they needed me to. It feels selfish, but it’s actually selfless.
Deep down I think you know what you’ve got to do. But it’s scary. Overwhelming. “I don’t have the time”. The things I DID do, don’t actually require a lot of time - just consistency.
Start small.
Start showing up for yourself.
Start filling your bone dry cup up.
Start living YOUR life and be the role model your kids need.
I believe in you!! ✨
