@fiftyfitnessjourney: I’ve not only gone through a major transformation myself at age 50, having lost over 50lbs and becoming the fittest version of me…I’ve also been fortunate to have a front row seat to the transformations of hundreds of midlife and beyond women through my coaching company @rebellion_body And over these past few years, I’ve noticed five characteristics that Women who are really successful in reaching and maintaining their transformation goals have in common: • They are willing to get UNCOMFORTABLE. You have to be willing to do things that scare you…whether that’s training in a gym for the first time or eating in a completely different way or any number of things…you have to be willing to do the intimidating things. • They thrive on ROUTINE and the boring basics. Truth be told…this is a must. They’re willing to do the same things and eat the same things…all while finding joy in the process. • They LIMIT ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION. I do find that holding onto regular alcohol consumption is simply not compatible with lasting transformation for most Women. This doesn’t mean you have to eliminate it completely…I still have a glass of champagne on my birthday or a special occasion…but I do think for most Women to maintain your goals this has to fall into the “rare” category. • They let go of having to be PERFECT. I cannot stress this one enough. Perfectionism has been the downfall of many Women on this path. To be successful, you have to allow yourself to be imperfect (human!) and then keep going. This is what consistency looks like. • They are not willing to settle for an ordinary life and they have a VISION for their future that they’re running towards. These Women dream of a future they are willing to be relentless for. Their visions for their second halves are what keeps them going when the road becomes difficult…and it will.
