Okay, so I’ve been seeing this “Gabi Garcia transformation” thing all over my feed, and honestly, I was curious. I mean, who hasn’t seen those before and after pics? So, I decided to give it a shot, my way. No crazy diets, no insane workout plans, just…trying to be a bit healthier and see what happens.
Phase 1: Getting Started (aka “What Did I Get Myself Into?”)
First thing I did? I actually looked at Gabi’s stuff. Not to copy it exactly, but just to get a general vibe. She’s obviously a beast, and I’m, well, not. I’m more of a “sit on the couch and eat chips” kind of beast.
I started small. Really small. Like, I swapped out my usual sugary soda for sparkling water. Baby steps, people!
- Food: Started paying attention to what I was eating. More veggies, less processed stuff. It wasn’t a total overhaul, just…conscious choices.
- Exercise: Ugh, exercise. I started with walks. Like, actual walks outside. It was surprisingly…okay. I even got a little bit into those online workout videos – the beginner ones, of course.
Phase 2: Actually Doing It (aka “The Grind”)
Okay, so this is where things got real. It’s not enough to just think about being healthy, you actually have to do it.
I made some meal plans using the notes I took from observing Gabi Garcia, which I tried following.
- Consistency is Key: This was the hardest part. Sticking with the healthier eating and the workouts, even when I really, really didn’t want to.
- Finding What Works: I realized those intense workout videos weren’t for me. I swapped them out for something a bit more my speed – like yoga and some light weight training.
- Listening to My Body: Some days I felt great, other days I felt like a slug. I learned to rest when I needed to, and not beat myself up about it.
Phase 3: Seeing Results (aka “Wait, Is That Me?”)
Okay, so I’m not going to lie, I didn’t magically transform into a bodybuilder. But…I did start to see some changes.
My muscles were starting to get some definition, I don’t recommend lifting weights too frequently, try to find a balance.
- Feeling Stronger: I could actually do more push-ups than before! (Okay, maybe just a few more, but still!)
- More Energy: I wasn’t dragging myself through the day as much. That sparkling water swap might have actually done something.
- Clothes Fitting Better: My jeans were a little less snug. Small victory!
So, yeah, my “Gabi Garcia transformation” wasn’t about becoming a clone of her. It was about finding my own version of healthy. It’s a work in progress, and I’m definitely not done. But I’m feeling better, stronger, and a little bit more like a beast – my own kind of beast, anyway.
