Week 3! I probably don’t know you or your circumstances but I do know a little about making the decision to live a healthier life and if you’re opening my 3rd blog post then possibly you are serious about your journey too. If you have been giving more movement, strength training, and drinking water a try for the last two weeks:
You’ve proven to yourself that you can keep going.
Probably not perfectly.
Possibly not every day.
But consistently enough to start rebuilding trust with your body and with yourself.
Week Three is about belief. Not the loud, rah, rah motivational kind but the quiet confidence that grows when you show up again and again.
Why Week Three Matters
This is often the point where we start to notice subtle changes:
movement feels a little less intimidating, strength exercises feel more familiar, routines begin to take shape, self-talk may be kinder.
These changes may not be dramatic, but they are meaningful. They signal that you’re no longer just trying, you’re becoming someone who cares for themselves.
What Week Three Will Look Like
1. Continuing Daily Movement
I hope movement is no longer about checking a box. It’s becoming part of your day, but it’s okay if it is still about checking the box.
You may notice:
More confidence in how to move, less pressure to “do it right,” more awareness of how movement affects your mood and energy.
There’s still no minimum pace or distance. You’re listening to your body, and that’s a skill worth celebrating.
2. Strength Training With Growing Confidence
Strength training in Week Three is about trust.
Trusting that:
your body can learn, your strength can grow at any age, two or three short sessions a week really do matter.
You don’t need heavier weights to make progress. You need consistency and patience. It doesn’t matter if you’re doing chair aerobics, cans of vegetables, resistance bands, or weights. You are moving forward.
3. Using Awareness to Make Gentle Adjustments
By now, logging food and water may have pointed out some things you could improve, or it might be showing you what you’re doing right.
Instead of judgment, try curiosity:
What meals give me energy? When do I feel my best? Where could I add nourishment instead of restriction?
Week Three invites you to notice how you talk to yourself.
This is how sustainable change begins—by listening instead of controlling.
4. Strengthening Your Mindset
When things don’t go as planned, do you:
criticize? compare? or offer yourself grace?
Learning to speak kindly to yourself is just as important as any physical habit.
