That is now a bigger drive and motivation to carry on than simply what I look like.
I second this! While I am enjoying the progress so far in terms of how my body is looking, I feel SOOO much better mentally than I have in a long time. I find I am managing stress a whole lot better and I just have a much more positive outlook in general.10 -
When I first started this journey, I figured that I’d lose some weight, then burn out like I had always done in the past. Now I know that eating at maintenance is perfectly okay to do now and then, and it would help me reach my end goal. Now I know that even if I have an off day, it’s not going to derail everything that I’ve already accomplished, and I can continue moving forward. Now I’m 76lbs down and 1lb away from my goal weight!16

When I first started this journey I thought "I don't care how long it takes, but I'll get to my goal weight" but now I know it's not just about a goal weight, it's about physical and mental health along with feeling better about myself and building better habits to feel amazing!8
