It’s been a while... like two years but I’m back and currently down from my last recorded weight here, but up from where I had actually gotten. I got all the way to 148 lbs and was feeling great, but gained some of that back and am currently getting back on track... again. Lol 🤷🏻‍♀️🤞🏻Cheers to the never ending weight maintenance journey called life!

This is a long awaited post for me and I’ll tell you why. Today, I am officially down 50 lbs! When I got pregnant, I was at my lowest adult weight after losing 82 lbs that had held me back my entire life. With my pregnancy and motherhood came a hefty 60 lbs and a new reason not to go to the gym. On top of the weight gain, I had regained my crippling back pain and my depression and anxiety had now reached postpartum levels. I had done the work and lost the weight and somehow I was back to where I was before, maybe worse. I felt awful. I crept up near my all-time heaviest weight, and it scared the crap out of me. I knew I had to do something quick if I wanted to kick the excess weight and be the healthy person I’ve always dreamed of. So I started getting serious about drinking water and eating well. I started doing yoga or going for walks in the early AM before anyone else was up. My results and the people around me, motivated me to do even more. Now I follow a whole food plant based diet, workout 6 times a week, and feel better than I have in a long time! There have been plenty of opportunities for me to give up and quit, and boy did I want to! I’ve seen where giving up takes me and it’s a road I’ve traveled too many times before. Not again! I’ve come too far to return to the miserable person I used to be. I’ve reached many goals these past 8 months and 50lbs is my biggest yet, but it won’t be my last. I have another 40-50 lbs to go and I’m ready for the journey and that finish line I’ve been desperately grasping at for most of my life. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq_YhZDFruO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=pxauq4grfz17
