Close to my first goal

Like in my previous posts, I want to go slow and steady. MY first goal is to get to 265lbs, and then work my way down. I don’t want to think about “end” goal because I always self-sabotage, so this way if I go slow, it will help me stay the course.

I only have 9.4lbs to go until my first goal!

... Read moreWeight loss journeys are often challenging, and setting realistic, incremental goals can be pivotal for long-term success. Approaching a first significant milestone, like reaching 265 lbs from an initial 299 lbs, demonstrates commitment and strategy. Many find that avoiding fixation on a distant “end goal” reduces the stress and pressure that can lead to self-sabotage, making slow, steady progress a smarter approach. The key is patience and consistency. Celebrating small wins, like losing 6.8 lbs repeatedly as reflected in the progress milestones, helps maintain motivation. Tracking your weight loss not only shows tangible progress but also highlights how far you’ve come, reinforcing positive habits. Incorporating hashtags such as #healingjourney and #health speaks to the emotional and physical aspects of this transformation. Overcoming obstacles in weight loss often involves more than just diet and exercise; it’s about mental well-being and finding inner strength. If you’re on a similar path, consider setting manageable targets instead of overwhelming goals. Embrace the process, celebrate every pound lost, and use your progress as fuel to keep going. Remember, sustainable weight loss isn’t a race but a healing journey that nurtures both body and mind.

I spent the entire summer getting my a$$ in shape! I was sick and tired of being sick and tired! •I did strength training 3 days a week (& still do!)! I could have gone more days, but I didn’t wanna overwhelm myself. This is what worked for me! •I slowly weaned myself off unhealthy foods.

Okay ladies! Here it goes 31.1 lbs down in 56 days! It doesn’t look like much but, the way I feel has improved immensely! I am so happy with this progress ❤️ I have noticed my wedding ring is so loose it does not fit and slips off my finger at times when it used to be so tight it would look like it

I've always tried to do bullet journals before I could never commit. With me being a perfectionist, I would always want to restart cause I could never get it just right, and after doing it over and over, I would just give up. So this year I told myself that I just need to commit and if there&#3
