I was trying to find something ‘wordy’ to add to this but I genuinely couldn’t find them- nothing.
Because HOW did I let it happen?
It didn’t happen overnight but in the grand scheme of things, 2 years was a very short time frame to almost entirely lose yourself.
The thing is everyone seems to find a reason for their weight gain, trauma, grief, emotional eating etc… but I couldn’t find any genuine reason to ease my guilt of just being out of control.
I finished college, had a job, had spare money. Money that was mostly spent on the most unhealthy takeaways. The gym stopped. I passed my driving test, hellooooo drive thrus!!
The care stopped for myself until I did care. I reflected and I cared about losing myself, trying to convince myself that I was happy all while craving the way I felt about myself in 2017. The happiness as a result of confidence and pride in the body I built. I so badly wanted to get that back…
I found The one2one diet and started on plan for 12 weeks and losing 3 stone turned my entire life around.
Truthfully as I tell all my clients, once you’ve lost the weight it’s totally normally to still crave and want all the food, but you have this new mindset that makes you question yourself.
You learn the true value of calories and decide if it’s worth it, portion control becomes easier, you maintain for longer, you become food smart.
My 2017 me, thrived off routine, structure, healthy habits, I had SO much get up and go… and I’ve regained that back, slowly, it’s tougher with a toddler in tow but it’s happening.
Reflection is beyond important in anyone’s Weight loss journey, I love reflecting but the reflection is confusing so I tend not to stay there long but it helps clarify the future and to know what I need to do next!!🙏🏻
