Day 13 of Soft 75

Yesterday went really well. I got plenty of active minutes and I was feeling really good about my self and my progress. I felt that way this morning too. Until I went on TikTok and a woman took it upon herself to tell me that my daughter “didn’t deserve an obese mother.”

That one stung. It shouldn’t have. I didn’t know her and she didn’t know me. But it’s struck a cord. I love my daughter and I wouldn’t being able to carry her.

While I was pregnant with her I reached my max weight before her I had at my max weighed 230. So when the scale read 250 at the end of my pregnancy, I tried hard not to let it bother me. To give my body grace for the amazing journey it had just been through.

We will see what the scale says tomorrow as day 14 comes around. Be kind to one another. 💕

... Read moreThe Soft 75 challenge emphasizes both physical activity and mental well-being, making it a comprehensive approach for postpartum fitness. Alongside regular workouts, incorporating healthy eating habits and staying hydrated plays a crucial role in achieving overall wellness. Many participants often share their emotional journeys, underscoring the importance of self-love and patience during recovery. Learning to embrace our bodies at different stages can significantly impact our mental health. Additionally, supportive communities online provide a platform for sharing experiences and tips, reinforcing the idea that we are not alone in our struggles. It’s essential to celebrate each step, no matter how small, and to remind ourselves that this journey is personal. Resources like fitness apps, healthy recipe blogs, and wellness forums can further aid in staying motivated and informed. Finding joy in movement and nurturing our bodies with nutritious foods can lead to profound transformations, both physically and emotionally. For more insights into postpartum challenges and successes, connecting with others on platforms that advocate for body positivity can also provide much-needed support and encouragement.

Definitely don’t listen to negative comments like that. You are doing amazing. I had someone in my comments make a remark about my waist size… people will just try to put others down because something is missing in their life. From what I’ve seen and our messages tell me your a great mother
