Hey I’m Sonia,
Fitness has been a huge part of my life for the last ten years. Even through two pregnancies, I’ve never let anything stop me from getting my sweat on.
For myself, fitness has been much more than just the physical changes that I’ve seen happen to my body over the years. It’s about feeling strong, feeling more confident in yourself, and feeling so damn proud of yourself for showing up even when you lacked all of the motivation in the world.
Because the truth is — seeing results takes time. So please don’t rely on that alone to motivate you. Instead, feel motivated because you prepared a super nutrient dense meal even though all you really wanted to eat was a Big Cuban sandwich with a Mamey smoothie from a Cuban restaurant.
Feel motivated because you got that sweaty workout in even though you were completely exhausted from life and really wanted to just lay on the couch.
These are all little victories that should be celebrated and these are all small steps to help you reach your big goals! You need to constantly remind yourself daily of your “WHY.”
My “why” is my family and my health. I want to be around for my family for as long as I possibly can. I want to be healthier — both physically and mentally. Those reasons are why I NEVER give up and always keep going.
Not every day will be perfect and that is OKAY! It isn’t about perfection, it is about progress.
