I live in Australia and since 2012 I have lost 30kgs I am 23 and 5'7. I thought being 89kgs back then was impossible I had low self esteem eating away at my life.
I don't know what it was that had snapped in my head to put myself first and so I decided to go to my doctor who told me to make small goals. She told me to focus on losing my first 9kgs. So I did.
Then my next goal was 65kgs which I made it there too, the lightest I got to was 58kgs but am about 65kgs today and still want to get back down to at least 60kgs.
One thing I leant was it just takes time, which I have. I just think what is 1,2,3 months out of my life to et fit and be a healthier me ?
And everyday I can start again if I mess up. Cheat meals isn't a failure.
'One cheat meal doesn't make you fat and one healthy meal doesn't make you skinny'
I have so much more confidence now and a lot of things have changed my wardrobe being one. But I am still on my journey the realization of 3years has just hit me. can't believe I've kept it up and still get motivated to keep going.
Just thought I'd share a thought.
