Not all inspiration comes in the form of a Instagram bikini pic and corny caption.
21-year-old fitness enthusiast Meghan Gilbert does it by sharing her story. By her senior year of high school, a hard-partying lifestyle and bad eating habits had her 5’4″ frame tipping the scales at 190 pounds.
It was time to make a change.
“I revamped my eating habits, adding protein-packed meals, like chicken or eggs with a side of good carbs and veggies, to my diet,” Gilbert told Health.
“The real change came, though, when I began dating a personal trainer. With his help, I started hitting the gym twice a day, five times a week, doing cardio in the morning and strength training at night.”
It worked. Four months later, she had already lost 65 pounds.
Gilbert—who now weighs in at a muscular 128 pounds— wants to help others reach their fitness goals.
She’s created her own 30-day weight loss program and routinely posts workout videos that include descriptions of various exercises.
Occasionally, the workout fiend does like to kick back with a cold beer. She’s only human, after all!
If these posts don’t give you a itch for exercise, we don’t know what to tell you.
