What was the motivating factor that got you started on your weight loss journey? Was it one thing or a series of events?
The motivation to lose weight this time around around was my brother’s wedding. His then fiancé sent me a tee shirts with BRIDESMAID across the front. The shirt was a size XL as well as it didn’t fit. I went to the bathroom as well as cried. I was 276lbs; that moment I vowed that I wouldn’t be the ‘fat’ sibling in all of the wedding event pictures. By the time the wedding event came around I lost 50lbs as well as my gown went from a size 26 to size 20.
What do you believe was the one most important modification you made? exactly how did it help? Can you keep this up for life?
The one most important modification I made was from within. It has taken a long time however I lastly like myself unconditionally. Realizing that I am not perfect as well as I will ruin truly assisted push me over hurdles in my journey. I have never when provided up on myself. There were months that I lost & gained the exact same 2 lbs however I stuck with it as well as right here I am 106lbs lighter. I understand that I can keep this up for the rest of my life since I owe it to myself & household to be healthy. My 11 year old child tells anyone that will listen that her mom has lost over 100lbs. understanding exactly how proud of me she is assists fuel the fire.
How did you modification your eating habits?
I lost my weight by complying with the weight watchers program. I had success with the program years back as well as I understood it worked if you stuck with it. with WW I have discovered about part manage as well as selecting the right foods. I went from eating quick food a number of times a week to cooking all my meals at home. I went from eating zero fruits & veggies to eating 5+ servings a day. I do not depend on frozen meals as well as I am on a quest to cut out most processed food (it’s hard!).
How did you modification your exercise habits?
I was a total as well as overall couch potato. The very first 8 months of my weight loss journey I did no exercise. After my siblings wedding event I needed a new goal to focus on. At this time around I came across the couch to 5K program as well as the rest is history. Thanksgiving morning 2008 I ran my very first 5k in 39:02. A year later I ran the exact same 5k as well as completed in 29:57. I ran my very first half marathon in October as well as I am running the Disney princess half marathon on March 7th. Running is my passion. I can’t envision my life without it.
How do you plan to preserve these healthy habits?
I plan to keep the weight off (and continue to lose) by utilizing the tools discovered from WW as well as running. I utilized to beat myself up when I ate something I “shouldn’t” have. I no longer believe like that. There is nothing wrong with indulging a bit as long as you get right back on track the extremely next meal. I want to ended up being a much better runner as well as I understand that the more weight I lose the quicker I get – overall motivation!
Do you have any type of tips for RER visitors who want to lose weight?
My tip for anyone wanting to lose weight is to take it someday at a time. It won’t be easy. I still struggle 2 years into my journey. You have to truly want it for yourself. You deserve to be happy & healthy.
