Hi, here to share a little bit. I recently moved back to my home state of Wisconsin, U.S. after having lived in Montana for the last 10+ years. I would say my biggest fitness goal is to forge a healthy relationship with food. And if I had to choose what I’d eat for a last meal…really depends on the day. Maybe Khao Soi?

Took the day off and had a Disneyland 🎂 birthday date with my partner. And yes… we went with the flow. He wanted cottage cheese pancakes at our favorite breakfast spot — so we did it. I had: • 3 cottage cheese pancakes with fresh strawberries • 2 eggs • 2 black coffees + 3 vanilla creamers Did I fully “plan”? Kind of. But not really. 😂 I was still so full that I skipped lunch. Had one snack — mango chili fruit jerky — and by dinner I was still feeling it. Good thing I had already prepped my Thai Kaprow bison & turkey 🙌🏼 Paired it with: • Pickled daikon & carrots • 1 egg • Chili paste End of day protein: 91g Goal: higher. And guess what? I’m too full to force more food. So I’m not. What am I going to do? ➡️ Move on. ➡️ Let it go. ➡️ Enjoy the memory. Old Lena would have: • Felt guilty • Beat herself up • Hit the gym extra hard the next day to “make up” the calories • Restricted food • Been miserable New Lena? Not anymore. No punishment workouts. No shame. No spiraling. And I still closed my rings. Ended my day at 19,283 steps (7.5+ miles) walking Disneyland. 🎢✨ This week I’ll tighten nutrition a bit — maybe trim 50–100 calories, add a few extra steps, recovery with sleep, and refocus on hitting protein consistently. But today? Today was life. Progress isn’t perfection — it’s emotional maturity around food. And that’s the real win. 💙🔥
