A Healthier Me: 12 Month Weight loss Update

I can’t even believe I am writing my 12 month weight loss update. A whole 12 months of hard work and dedication. I can’t believe I have got to this point. I dreamt of the day that I got to write a 12 month update here on my blog. Losing weight always felt so impossible for me. I had so many things working against me, but here I am. Living proof that if I can do it, so can you. And I know its so cliche and so many people who lose weight say this, but I have made this my life. I love working out and eating good food. I can’t see my life being any other way.

A Healthier Me: 10 Month Update

A Healthier Me: 10 Month Update

I cannot quite believe that my 10 month update has come around so quickly. In one way time has gone so fast and in others it has gone so slow. I started this journey back in April 2021, without any idea how long I would be going for. Looking back at pictures and videos of myself back then is almost like looking at a stranger. I have no idea who that person was. I definitely think this weight-loss and fitness journey has been the best decision I have ever made.

How People Treated Me Different After Losing Weight

Something I noticed during my weight loss journey is how people treated me different after losing weight. As many of you know, I have been on my fitness journey now for nearly 9 months. I have had to continuously learn better eating habits without letting old habits creep back in. And throughout this journey I have learnt so much about myself and who I am.

A Healthier Me: Gaining Weight & Trying Out New Things

If you’ve been around for the last 7 months you will know I have been on a journey to become a healthier me. Meaning I completely changed my eating habits and lifestyle habits too. I have been updating and documenting my changes on my blog since the time I started and its so crazy to go back and see how far I have come in such a short amount of time. It’s rare I go into much personal detail on my blog anymore, just for privacy reasons but something like this I am more than happy to share with the world in hopes it inspires others to change their lives.

My Weight Loss Journey: Losing 22 Pounds

For the longest time I have wanted to start my own weight loss journey, but there was always something stopping me. “I’ll start on Monday” or “I can’t do it this week because I’m on holiday.” I’m sure alot of you can relate to those statements. There was always something stopping me from doing it, even though I knew I needed to. After the 3rd lockdown in England, I really tried my hardest to do what I could to get healthier. Both physically and mentally. I went for 2 walks a day, I tried intermittent fasting and I just kept on gaining weight. I really struggled with body image.
