Losing weight after a cancer diagnosis

I received a cancer diagnosis last year, but after my recent surgery, there's now no evidence of the disease which is amazing!

This experience has profoundly shifted my perspective on life. I've come to understand that prioritizing my health is essential, and my goal is to become the best and healthiest version of myself.

In just three weeks of cutting down on dairy, reducing sugar, and increasing my protein intake, I've already lost 1 stone and 5 pounds! 😮

Writing about my cancer journey has transformed me in countless ways. It has highlighted the importance of health, reminding me that without it, nothing else truly matters.
