I Banished 26 pounds in December, and even though my goal was 30. This weight loss journey is all about resilience. I had lost a little over 50 lb in July and August, but my failed attempt to relocate to South Florida set me back and I gained 25 of it back. So now I am back on track, under 400 lbs. And I'm moving forward with confidence.
I am not using any weight-loss medications or supplements, I'm not subscribed to special food deliveries. And I haven't had any surgical intervention - not that I'm dissing those methods. But I have been focussed in treating physical ailments like sleep apnea that were impacting my mental health and stability.
These things I share not to brag, but I think it's important to be transparent about how folks achieve their weight loss when there's a huge industry out there lying to people, backed by social media myths, that tells us we can't do it by other means. Because we can!
It's okay to utilize the tools that are out there. But just know that we each can tap the power we already have within ourselves to begin making healthy decisions. We can pivot our lives in the directions we choose, and make choices that support these decisions.
Happy New Year everybody!
