Before and after, 3 years apart:
It was a crazy journey. As you can see I'm a small bean at only 4'11 so having so much excess weight on me really started to take a toll. It wasn't until I started recognising the simplest things were becoming hard to do - including the bother to roll out of bed to go toilet (dw, I did anyway! lol).
I decided to make a big change in who I am and what I was doing with my life. I recognised that eating a 1kg steak, with chips and mash, almost daily was not 'normal'. I recognised I went to the local burger takeaway so often when they saw me they asked 'the usual?'.
Most of my weightloss was diet alone. I did go to the gym, and did some cardio, but the honest truth is I am still lazy. I cut down my portions from 5000+ calories a day to 2000 to 1200. I was a binge eater, so it took A LOT to start controlling that and even now it's difficult but I push through.
I surely thought by 30 I would be bed bound, but instead I dropped from a size 22 to a size 10-12, found my confidence, but most of all... found my love for life and the girl I was before... is thankful I didn't unalive myself over something as trivial as weight. We did something even better and for that, I say thank you to her for being strong and becoming the me I am today.
Good luck to everyone on this journey, it's worth it.
