The first photo was taken sometime in 2017. I was depressed and suffer from PCOS. I felt defeated and lost. Then my mom introduced me to the wonders that is intermittent fasting. It was easy to pick up, I work in veterinary medicine and barely have time for a lunch break anyways. I didn’t lose too much but I also didn’t take IF seriously on my off work days. Fast forward to the beginning of this year. I told myself that this year is the year I make a difference. COVID-19 happened and it pushed me to find ways to better myself while at home. I picked up running at a local running path and one of my coworkers and I decided to run a 10k this fall. I’ve only lost about 30lbs but I know I’ve gained muscle and self confidence! I fast anywhere from 16-20 hours a day with only drinking water during that time. I exercise while fasted as well. I have fewer migraines and I’ve found I crave healthier food options. The second picture is a picture from today. I’m so happy I took pictures from the beginning of my journey because seeing those side by sides is life changing. You don’t realize the difference until you look at old pictures. I’ve also included a face to face comparison.
I’ve creeped on this page for a while a admire every single person! Thanks for all the inspiration everyone!
