🕑 Added 2019-01-30 01:59:22 +0000 UTCSarah had finally made her big break, after a friend of a friend had reached out about a new, very lucrative opening~ she had no choice but to accept. She had always dreamed about living 'the city life'- and now that dream was reality. The only downside was that her 'new' studio apartment it was at the very top of a newly renovated, but old, building, which had no elevator.
She originally didn't give it a second thought, her new years' resolution was to 'get back in shape'- but after just a few weeks of coming home from long workdays, carrying groceries, and bags of laundry and garbage up and down the stairs, they were really exhausting her.
But, Sarah was no quitter. She had worked so hard in her major, and acquiring certifications just to prepare for an opportunity like this- there was no way she's going to let a couple flights of stairs push her off track. She began eating more, and at the advice of her co-worker, supplementing her morning shakes with some protein powder.
Slowly, but surely- as the weeks wore on, the flights became less draining, and as her struggle faded they became another nonremarkable part of traversing from point A, to B. Before, they had utterly sapped her down to her last reserves of energy, but they now held as little clout in her mind as the 39th sidewalk square towards the station. While completely adapted, she didn't think to reduce her portions, or break the habit of supplementation.
Completely saturated in her new life in the city, and her developing career.. she would continue to supplement and grow- until indulging in a spontaneous instagram shot, trying on her old clothes before throwing them out. The picture tickled something in her head, and she recognized she already had a shot of herself wearing this exact outfit, as a post about moving in!
She scrolled through all of her miscellaneous photos until she found the original shot- Then, she saw the true magnitude of the changes that had taken place in a few short months.. she was completely taken aback- and thrilled at the same time; deciding to see what would happen if she doubled protein powder intake..
