I was 190lbs and went down to 119 lbs in 3 years! It was a long process, but i had made a promise to myself to work on being healthy (not that weight has anything to do with how healthy you are, but in my case it did) physically and mentally. I used to deal with a binge eating disorder, depressio

How many times have we looked at the wall and forgotten the promise? When God told Joshua that Jericho belonged to Israel, the walls were still standing. Nothing looked different. Day after day they walked, obeyed, and trusted God even when they couldn’t see immediate results. Imagine how easy i

I dated some frogs before meeting my husband. The kind that lie constantly, treated me like crap and had literal girlfriends on the side (but don’t worry, I was his main gf). But back then I thought that was normal. I thought that that was just what guys did and that I couldn’t expect any better.

Truth is, you were always the safe space. The one I could laugh with, vent to, and just be around without overthinking. But timing wasn’t on our side in the beginning. My heart was still tied up in something I wanted to work, even though deep down I knew it wasn’t for me. You never pressured me

I’ve been seeing people doing this trend and I’m curious, so I wanted to try it too. What do you guys think? #whatsmyname #Lemon8Diary #me

1. Your Professors Are A Resource🤝 I was so intimidated by my professors at first, but I promise they're just people who are passionate about their subject. Going to office hours just to introduce myself was a game-changer that led to a great internship recommendation later on. 2. Skills Ov

So this was my very first time getting my hair professionally done, my boyfriend has paid for me to get it done to make up for Christmas, my birthday and Valentine’s Day and I am absolutely in love! She done such an amazing job and was such a sweet heart, she was hyping me up before and after!! And

never forget the time I was planning a trip with friends. I was excited just a simple getaway to relax and have fun. But my ex? He hated the idea. He started questioning everything. “Why are you going?” “Who’s going to be there?” “What’s the real reason you want to go?” And when he reali

When I got engaged, I didn’t cry. I wasn’t overwhelmed. I was happy, but it wasn’t this dramatic movie moment. I felt almost guilty because I thought something was wrong with me. Everyone was annoyed at me because I didn’t cry, while my husband was fully tearing up. I promise it was one of the h

Going into 2024, I wasn’t sure what to expect. But one thing I did know is that I wanted to live my BEST life. I made a promise to myself that I would do whatever I desire. And in the midst of that, I discovered that I am in fact a bit of a daredevil 😳😂 BUT I have NO REGRETS 😝 I’ve been

Saving $10K in 6 months sounds extreme… but I promise it wasn’t about being miserable. No crazy restrictions. No never-leaving-the-house energy. I just got intentional. A few things that made the biggest difference: – I stopped ignoring my spending – I made saving automatic – I focused

I used to think he just needed more time… Time to grow, time to heal, time to love me the way I deserved. He wasn’t a bad person he just had potential. And I held on to that potential like it was a promise. I kept seeing the version of him I created in my head the soft, healed, loving man I
