Comparison is the thief of joy.
I didn’t take off my coverup yesterday. I was playing the comparison game, there are so many people here who completed our 80 day ab and booty program and look fantastic.
Today I realized they may not be on the same journey as me. Maybe they didn’t have an infant and were struggling to find time to workout, maybe they didn’t have a c section 6 months ago and had their abs cut through and maybe they don’t struggle with binge eating.
This my MY BODY and MY JOURNEY #bodypositive.
