Weightloss Journey

⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️I’m stepping out of my comfort zone right now⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️

.

This isn’t easy for me as someone with very little body confidence (especially my stomach) I grew up not as the ‘fat girl’ but the ‘big girl’ because of my height. I remember times from when I was in my early years of high school and boys would tell me I shouldn’t be wearing a t-shirt because I was too big😬. Back then I wasn’t even big. I was normal clothing size for my age but just seemed it because I was tall but those comments stuck with me💔. My weight gain began after the 2011 earthquakes along with anxiety which encouraged me to eat more🍞🥐🍟. I managed to 110kgs 🍰at my heaviest about 4 months ago. I now weight 92 👊🏽and I’m not ashamed of that☺️. I’m nowhere near where I want to be but I’m 18kgs closer👌🏽! 

Picture on the right 4months ago: The day my life changed and I started the Shred10 programme🙌🏼
Picture on the left taken this morning: Getting over 30 fruits🍎 and veggies🍆 every day, sleeping at least 9hours 😴everyday, daily exercise 🚴🏽‍♀️and drinking 3L of water everyday

I’m amazed at what the whole foods programme has done for me. It’s real eating✔️, no food deprivation✔️, no counting calories✔️ and it’s family friendly✔️. Which means everyone can eat yummy healthy foods as a family, creating good habits that will pay a lifetime. 

I’d like to say a huge thank you to all my friends and family who have helped me and given me tremendous amounts of support during the last four months💕. It’s been a tough emotional ✨journey, that’s definitely not over👊🏽👊🏽

Sundays

Sundays used to be the worst day of my week. Always waking up hungover, drinking endless amounts of fizzy drinking and stuffing myself with fast food and carbohydrates as if it was a routine. My week would progressively get worse from there until Thursday when I suddenly regretted everything I’d put into my body that week. One day it just hit me that things need to change and that’s when I was introduced to the wholefood shred programme. I am 100% obsessed with everything about the products and the company. Now every Sunday, even when I don’t want to, I follow my 5 daily rituals ⭐️Exercise

⭐️Water

⭐️Walking my dogs

⭐️Complete shake for breakfast

⭐️Magic Beans

I know the week ahead is going to be better than my last. 

Anxiety, goals and food. 

Lately I can’t stop thinking about where I want to be in 5 years time. All through school I thought setting goals was a huge waste of time and what’s the point. I guess not setting any left me with no disappointment. 3 months ago I started setting small daily goals and now I’m starting to think of long term goals. Now I’ve realised waking up everyday with a purpose changes the way I think of myself. Along with goal setting, changing my diet, well my lifestyle of; late night take out foods, soft drinks, energy drinks, lollies, dairy and gluten. Don’t get me wrong, I will still demolish a large fries from McDonald’s or a bread roll or two 😉 but now it’s not everyday. More like once a month. I’ve noticedMy anxiety has almost depleted and I couldn’t be happier. I have so many wonderful things in my life to be great full for and look forward to. It just shows, if you look after your body, your body will look after you.
