One of the things I'm doing by sharing these things is to show that I'm not perfect
Influencer culture truly bothers me. Carefully cultivated images of perfect lives and habits that I think honestly hurts a lot of people because they can't live up to that kind of image
I'm a long distance runner and hiker. 95% of the time or more, I'm on the bounce and on the plan, but I have moments of weakness, fallibility and failure.
Every moment is a chance to start again. You only truly fail if you quit
@NiveusLepus #Inspiring Keep it up. You can do it! You have done it!
I'm trying to find my own way forward. Progress may be slow but it's still progress. 👍
@danielbsmith Onward, toward the dawn! ^_^ We're both gonna rock it my friend. Small changes, big waves! Be the butterfly and make the hurricane!
I have struggled my whole life with stress eating. When I was 21, at the apex of my misery emotionally and mentally, I was also 380 lbs. Today I'm 190, because I've found ways to be overall consistent, but there are days where the habit energy drags me back down. Sometimes it's a couple of days in a row.
When I'm injured, it's the hardest. I get a lot out of my runs.
Everyone struggles, and that's all the more reason to be compassionate and excellent to one another.
Onward, toward the dawn!
