My name is Marina and today is my first day at doing what I need to do in order to get back to my normal self. I am not trying to turn back time, but it would be nice to shed an excessive amount of weight, learn mindfulness and self-confidence after being the pillar of strength for everyone else but myself.
I have lived a sedentary life for over 10 years now which resulted in not only gaining weight, but gaining medical issues, losing self-confidence and becoming a hermit to the point where I became officially disabled at the age of 54. I am now 59 and find myself not only unable to move because of lack of movement and muscles starting to atrophy, but the ugliness I see in myself prevents me from wanting to leave my house and go outside.
After an annual health visit with my primary, she prescribed me Zepbound, Vitamin D for becoming deficient and told me I needed to start using that pillar of strength on myself because if those pillars break then that strength is lost for everyone. So… This is my first day and I am going to need all the help I can get. Wish me luck!
