Follow my 100 lb. fat loss journey.

How I lost the weight- had my cake and ate it too.

Most people will look at this before and after and only be able to see the visible difference.

And yes-

LOSING 100 pounds is an incredible accomplishment… but everything I GAINED is so much more important than what I lost.

The girl on the left was O V E R W H E L M E D! I was smiling just so I wouldn’t cry. I avoided people and places that I loved… because I had gained so much weight. I was always anxious and exhausted. Embarrassed to do anything because the state of my health made me feel like I wasn’t capable. I had NO ENERGY and had told myself this is just my new reality. I would even skip meals in hopes of not being “fat” anymore!

Is this how you’ve treated yourself during one of the most vulnerable times of your life too?

I was scared.

... I mean - in my head about everything, type of scared.

scared to sit down at a party .. In fear of the chair breaking.

scared to be the first one to grab my plate.. in fear that they were watching “the fat girl eat”.

scared to go to family functions or other gatherings .. in fear of someone taking my picture.

scared to put down the sodas and chips.. in fear of not enjoying the foods that would be good for my body.

scared to tell anyone that I was scared… in fear they might view me as a pathetic person who “did this to themselves”.

I was scared that I had pushed my body too far in the wrong direction and there was no coming back from that. Can you relate?

Then I made a decision!

& that changed E V E R Y T H I N G.

I focused on PROGRESS not perfection.

I made a few adjustments to my habits and put my focus there instead of the scale. Then educated myself on what my body ACTUALLY needed to THRIVE. Paid close attention to my hormones and how balanced I felt. Shifted my mindset to seeing food as FUEL not FAT. The biggest adjustment was speaking kindly to myself and finding a group of women that would encourage me.

I gained more energy, confidence, strength, positivity, better sleep, and finally had an overall sense of awareness of my body and the hormones that drive this beautiful vessel.

My smile was back and this time it was REAL!

So I did the next obvious thing.. I got certified to Coach! What an eye opening experience this has been. We are all way more alike than we openly share. We all have a desire to feel better, and do better for the longevity of our health. We also all have a crap ton of responsibilities pulling us in every direction. That’s why when you register and show up for yourself- WE CELEBRATE YOU!
