Coming out of Hiding


Remember when I said that consistency was my biggest struggle? Well, that’s been pretty much been the reason why I’ve been MIA for almost a month now.

Unlike previous bouts of inconsistency with blogging, I’ve actually had a lot happen that I could’ve written about; however, I was just too ashamed to talk about my experiences, not only with you guys, but also to my coach.

I was afraid of the criticisms that I would receive if I shared what had been going on. For instance, if I told you all that I have been up and down the same five pounds for weeks, you all would think, “You’ve received over a year of coaching. Surely you would have this weight loss thing on lock by now.” (I’ll respond about this more in another post, but for now I’ll say that such is not the case.) After all, you’re only supposed to post on social media once everything’s perfect, right?

Well, I want to change that.

I’m going to be more transparent with you guys. I know what it’s like to be frustrated by people on social media who just appear out of nowhere and they have have lost weight, gotten out of debt, and/or are in relationships (or engaged...or married). Not that you’re not happy for them, but when their stories are told, it seems as though they just found success overnight. Like they just received the secret to solving an issue that you have been struggling for years.

But with that said, I do plan on posting more often. At least once a week if only to update you all on my current weight. Also, you’ll be seeing more pictures of me!

Thrilling! 🙃

Until next time!

Love,

Monique ❤
