I’ve shared a lot… probably overshared at times. So why not one more thing. I’m 29 and a mom of four, and while I wouldn’t trade any part of my journey, my body hasn’t felt like mine for a very long time. I worked out consistently before, during, and after each pregnancy. I counted macros and focused on protein. I did everything “right”… but nothing changed. I felt stuck, frustrated, and honestly, I cried a lot. And I want to feel healthy and confident again — not “skinny,” just me.
I debated trying GP for a long time but because of the judgment people throw around I was terrified. But the truth is: I need this physically and mentally.
So hi, I’m Calla, this is a new journey for me! I am unbelievably scared, excited, nervous. If you’re in the same boat and need someone to cheer you on, let it be me. I’m here to support anyone who’s been debating taking a step for themselves — and I hope you can cheer me on, too🩷
Finally putting yourself first is an important step many moms can relate to after enduring the physical and emotional challenges of pregnancy and motherhood. It’s common to feel disconnected from your own body even when following diet plans, counting macros, and maintaining consistent workouts—as Calla experienced. GLP-1 therapies have recently emerged as helpful tools for many on post-pregnancy health journeys, offering support beyond traditional approaches. These treatments can assist with appetite regulation and metabolic health, empowering individuals to feel healthier and more in control. Being part of a community like the #glp1community can provide motivation, reduce feelings of isolation, and create a judgment-free space where people share their ups and downs. For moms especially, self-care may get sidelined due to time demands and societal pressure. Calla’s candid sharing about fear, frustration, and tears highlights the emotional toll such experiences can have. Opening up invites connection and encouragement, reminding others they aren’t alone in their struggles. Tracking macros and prioritizing protein remain valuable for body composition and energy, but when progress stalls, exploring additional methods like medical support or therapy can be beneficial. True health journeys honor both physical and mental well-being, reflecting a holistic approach rather than focusing solely on weight or appearance. If you’re considering prioritizing yourself after motherhood, whether through lifestyle changes, medical options, or simply reestablishing a positive mindset, remember that it’s okay to seek help and take things one step at a time. Sharing your story and finding support—just like Calla—is an empowering reminder that putting yourself first is not selfish but essential for lasting confidence and health.
