When Did You Realize It Was Time To Loose Weight?

There’s always that moment when it hits you. You realize it’s time to finally take your health and body seriously. For me, it wasn’t about fitting into a certain size or looking a certain way; it was about feeling strong, having energy, and taking care of myself for the long haul. Sometimes it comes suddenly, other times it’s a slow realization after months of ignoring the signs. When did you finally decide it was time to make a change, and what pushed you over the edge?

These re some tips that helped me (and gave me results) when I was working out multiple times a week and watching what I ate. But then I started slacking because I got into a relationship and gained “happy weight”. Most of these things have stuck with me, such as the protein and hydrating part.

Food I am eating while trying to loose weight
Weight loss is not complicated , eat less and exercise more- this is harder to do because eating less suggests eating like a rabbit ! This will lead to failure - eating less is being present and mindful of amount of food you consume! #weightlosshealthjourney , #unfiltered , #Lemon8Diary , #blac
