Weight loss: From Ashamed to Empowered - My Journey to Health and Happiness

Weight loss: From Ashamed to Empowered - My Journey to Health and Happiness

I rarely take photos of myself, mostly I have lots of photos of my family, especially my kids and food. I am ashamed. Yes. I was unhappy with how I looked and didn't even check my weight or look in the mirror. I know I gained way too much that scared me with my blood pressure and sugar levels. I don't want to post these things because until now I am still ashamed of how I came up with this heavy body that I don't even recognize myself. I even asked my hubby, 'Why are you not saying anything about my weight?' He replied, 'To be honest I don't notice that much since we're always together.'



We both gained weight. I started to walk more, I did intermittent fasting, I followed some professionals who know more about calorie deficit and nutrition, I listen to my bod and stay active. I have reversed my sickness and successfully reduced my hypertension medications that also runs in our family. I am not always tired anymore. I promise to myself that I will live for my family especially for my young kids who needs me. I am still not there but I'm on my way. Bruh, this is not easy! I also keep a sustainable lifestyle so it will never be a yo-yo thing again. Iykyk. Keep pushing forward! It's never too late.
