RevAbs Challenge Group – Week 9:

The reason many people fail at getting in shape (or at least they don’t get the results they’re seeking) is because they rationalize their eating by the fact that they worked out. “I worked out today, so I can have this deep-fried donut bacon burger.”

Problem is, we OVERESTIMATE how many calories we’ve burned, and UNDERESTIMATE how many calories we’re consuming. You see, it’s much easier to eat 1200 calories than burn them. And if you’re not honest with yourself about these numbers, the body is notoriously blunt about reminding us of the truth.

So if you’re endeavoring on new fitness ambitions and are planning on improving your exercise but not your nutrition, I want to challenge you to reconsider. Workouts are only part of the equation.

I decided to try the 21 day fix and am so glad I did. Due to an injury I wasn’t able to complete the exercise part of it. I still lost weight and owe so much of my success to Kim. She motivated and encouraged me when my injury was really getting me down. She always had time to answer my questions and she checked in with me daily. What I loved the most was that she held me accountable! I really don’t think I would have stuck with it on my own.
