Transformation doesn’t usually look impressive while it’s happening! It can be very frustrating when you’ve made changes to your lifestyle and are no longer where you were, but you’re also not where you want to be. When you’re in that place, it can be tempting to abandon your plan rather than sit in that discomfort.
