you’re not unmotivated-you’re just burnt tf out

okkkkk… i need to say something that might sting a little —
you’re not stuck because you’re lazy.
you’re stuck because you’ve been following the wrong effing rules.

like, tell me if this sounds familiar 👇
you’re eating “healthy.”
you’re hitting your workouts.
you’ve done keto, low-carb, intermittent fasting — all the things.
and yet… the scale won’t budge. your jeans still feel tight. and honestly? you’re exhausted.

i see you. because i used to live there too — in that loop of “what else can i cut out?” or “maybe i just need to push harder.”
girl, no. your body doesn’t hate you. it’s trying to protect you.

here’s the truth: when you’ve spent years in diet mode — constantly restricting, over-training, running on caffeine and cortisol — your body isn’t in “fat-loss mode.” it’s in survival mode.

that means your metabolism slows down, your hormones get out of whack, and your nervous system is basically screaming, “please chill.”

so if you’ve been thinking, “why does my body feel like it’s fighting me?”
it’s because it kinda is — it’s fighting to keep you alive while you keep asking it to shrink.

what you actually need isn’t another reset or detox — you need to regulate.
regulate your blood sugar.
regulate your stress.
regulate your sleep.

when you start feeding your body consistently (like actually eating enough), strength training instead of over-cardioing, walking more, and letting your nervous system breathe — everything changes.

the weight starts to move.
the bloat goes down.
your energy finally matches the woman you’ve been trying to become.

that’s the real glow up. ✨

and if this hit you a little — good. because it means your body’s been whispering this to you for a while. maybe it’s time you listen.

cheers to our glow up,
alesha 🤍
