I do my best to celebrate all of these things on an everyday bases.

I’m not crying, my eyes are just sweating!
.
But really though, I’m so frustrated. I have been more in point with my nutrition for the past three weeks than I ever have I my life, and for some reason my body is fighting me so hard. After my initial water drop in the first couple of days I’ve lost maybe 2 pounds. Every time the scale goes down it’s guaranteed to shoot right back up the next day. I have no idea what’s going on. I know I haven’t been cutting for that long, but my body has never been this slow to lose weight - especially on the macros I’m on now. I started this cut 16 weeks out to give myself plenty of time to come in leaner than ever, and here I am making no progress I almost wish I was slacking somewhere so there would be a REASON for this. All I can say is that I’m happy I start with my coach on Saturday so she can try to figure out what’s wrong with me *Sorry for complaining, just trying to keep it real!*

This summer marks the 10th anniversary of Origin68! Ten years have passed since we sat in the pub and decided to design some t-shirts and try to sell them on the internet. Well, it only went and worked. Here we are 10 years later. We’ve even survived a global recession.

To celebrate this momentous occasion we’ve gone all self indulgent and made a ̶p̶r̶o̶g̶ ̶r̶o̶c̶k̶ ̶c̶o̶n̶c̶e̶p̶t̶ ̶a̶l̶b̶u̶m̶ couple of t-shirts. Here’s the second one of those designs.

After receiving many awesome DMs (thank you everyone for your kind words ), I thought it was important to share this 2-second #transformation I saw other #bikinicompetitors post the quote about NOT comparing yourself to the girl in the photo because that girl doesn’t even look like “the girl in the photo”. Well, it’s the #truth My bedroom has great lighting….my kitchen, not so much. You certainly see more #abs in my bedroom pic. And that picture was taken literally two seconds later. I have struggled (still do) with #bodyimage and #selfesteem issues my whole life and I am always comparing myself to others (guilty!) but I have to remind myself that lighting, angles, & poses certainly can change a #physique in an instant!
