While I get to know myself

I’m new to lemon8 and just going out there and holding myself accountable by posting everything I eat and trying to heal my mental health and relationship with food 🥘

I’m sick of doctors telling me oh you need to have weight loss surgery (not bashing it at all was even considering it at one point, just don’t feel it’s the right rout for me I don’t have peace about it) I do agree with the doctors I need to get my health in check but I am going on a journey to do it naturally and would love to share my progress along the way!!

... Read moreTaking a journey towards mental and physical health can be challenging yet fulfilling. Establishing a connection between mind and body often involves not just dietary changes, but also emotional healing. As you delve into this process, practicing self-compassion is key. Engaging in mindfulness, journaling, and connecting with supportive communities can catalyze transformation. It's essential to address underlying emotions related to food and body image, as healing requires both mental and physical alignment. As you explore natural approaches, consider integrating activities that soothe your spirit, whether it's meditation, exercise, or simply spending time in nature. Remember, the path to health is not just a destination, but a continuous journey of self-discovery and love.

getting myself out of seasonal depression ❤️‍🩹
i guess you can say, this funk was extra funkyyy and lasted much longer than the low seasons i've had in the past. fortunately, it wasn't so bad to where i stayed in bed all day, but it did get to the point where i had no motivation to do anything, and when i did take action, i felt numb.
