How you are valued

Wanna see how people value you and see you.. loose 100lbs, get healthy for your own sake and your families sake. Then see who is in your corner cheering you on, or who is talking behind your back! I was so unhealthy, unhappy, lost in grief, depression, and stress.. while I fought a constant battle within myself. So many people “had my back” when I finally got answers and the help I needed to get on the right track- walls went up and I became singled out, picked up, bullied, lost people who I thought were friends. I lost connections and took it at heart, because no one understood or seen that battle within myself every morning every evening every day. But my family did, my kids did, I did. I had seen doctor after doctor was told it’s just age, nothing we can do- well idk what to tell you… all it took was a good friend of mine to point me in the right direction to right doctors who listened, did the testing, then helped me get the help I needed and kept me motivated! Hell she still keeps me motivated, she cheers me on, tells me how good I look ,how proud she is of me , and continues to inspire me through it all- hell we just discovered we both weight about the same last night! All I can say is KEEP IT UP GIRL! but honestly I wouldn’t change it, I wouldn’t change the journey I decided to take and the people I dissociated from. I look back on these photos and I beam with pride and gratitude that I finally took that leap.

... Read moreWeight loss journeys can significantly impact personal relationships and self-perception. Many people face challenges not just with diet and exercise, but also in managing social dynamics as they transition to a healthier lifestyle. It's common to encounter support from some friends while others may distance themselves, reflecting their own insecurities or misunderstandings. Importance lies in surrounding yourself with those who genuinely support your goals. Additionally, focusing on self-love and understanding can enhance your mental well-being during such transformative experiences. If you're considering a weight loss journey, seek communities where shared experiences can foster encouragement, like those found in online forums or local support groups. Remember, the journey is as important as the destination, and maintaining a positive mindset amidst the challenges will lead to both physical and emotional success. Celebrate every milestone, no matter how small, and remind yourself of the incredible strength it takes to change your life for the better.
