Welcome to your Midweek Motivation!In this Midweek Motivation check-in, Gina and Odette reflect on the current state of both the weight loss and maintenance groups, highlighting the different mental spaces members are in. While some are starting to eye the finish line, others are shifting into readiness for more autonomy—eager to "live the Livy way." The conversation explores how personalizing the plan is about more than just food; it's about trusting yourself, your body, and the choices you're making. They address common concerns with the current tweak—splitting up meals and snacks—and remind members that eating more often isn't the same as eating more food. One member's comment sparks a deeper discussion about portion perception, physical hunger, and the science behind weight fluctuations. It's a reminder that the real weight gain doesn't come from nutrient-rich foods—it comes from old diet mindsets sneaking in.You can find the full video hosted at:https://www.facebook.com/groups/ginalivymaintenanceandmindfulnessTo learn more about The Livy Method and our Maintenance & Mindfulness group, visit livymethod.com.

In this episode of Midweek Motivation, David gets real about the kind of training that doesn't get likes on social media — the cold, quiet, ordinary miles. You know, the ones where you lace up before dawn, even when you're tired, sore, or just not feeling it. He reminds us why boring runs are the foundation of breakthrough performance and why ordinary effort, done consistently, is anything but small. David breaks down four powerful truths: Consistency builds capacity – showing up, even when it's not glamorous, is where real growth happens. Boring runs train your mindset – mental endurance is forged in the quiet miles, not race-day hype. Small efforts compound over time – like compound interest, daily discipline adds up to massive long-term gains. Love the process, not just the finish line – fulfillment comes from the journey, not just the medal. He also shares insights from Atomic Habits and research from Strava and Frontiers in Psychology, plus a reminder from Galatians 6:9 to keep doing good — both in running and in life — because the harvest is coming.
