that’s the life…
I shared this picture on an Instagram story the other day
and one of the responses was:
“Wow that looks like the life I want to live”
And it got me thinking
About how Instagram and all social media really
Just share the positives .
You know, even on this amazing trip where magical memory moments were made
There were things that I didn’t share on social media:
- “I need a wee” – one of the kids says 2 minutes after leaving the service station because the other one needed a wee
- “I don’t need a wee anymore” – as we pull into the next service station
- “I just want a spade a bucket” …”not this spade and bucket” 😂
- “I didn’t win” 😭 after the claw on the machine where you try and pick up a teddy just slipped through the claws…
I could go on..
And like I said, no complaints about this.
Lots of lessons for the kids
From sharing
To losing
To being happy with what you have 😂
Anyway,
Why am I sharing this?
Well, it’s the same in this weight loss and toning up game…
Everywhere you look
You see before and after pictures
And others doing so well
And I get it
I am to blame too
I share these stories too like these
To inspire you to see what can be possible
But I just want you to know that
It’s not all sunshine, unicorns and rainbows 🌈
There are struggles
From the scales
Not moving
Or even going up🤬
To lacking motivation
To social life getting in the way
Or just pace of life getting in the way
And – so you think – stopping you being “perfect”
The key thing with this?
Remember you don’t have to be as “perfect” as you think.
But you will need to be more consistent than you think
