Getting Started Right

I remember when I first began my weight loss journey. I had a few basic ideas of what I was going to do and I decided to just go full board with it. As time went on my journey became more and more involved. At first I focused on my eating. I was a junk food junkie. I was also a binger and restricter. I had though discovered Clean Eating and knew that needed to be a major part of my changes. I didn't want to just limit my food just to still eat crap. I also knew that physical activity was going to be important too. Even though I had weight struggles since being a teenager I really did enjoy physical activity, was even a high school athlete (baseball & basketball). I also loved swimming and riding my bicycle. In my late teens and into my 20s I only flirted with the idea of the gym. I was way to self conscious for that!!

I had my first baby at 23, my second at 27, and my third at 29. I also have struggled through pregnancy loss 4X. All of that has done quite the number on my body. It was after my third, my daughter, was born that I really dug in. I had a support group and I had my plan. After 2 1/2 years I lost 100 lbs!!!

YES!! 100 lbs!!!!!

I am now 33 years old and the fittest I have EVER been!!! I did it all at home too. I never had to worry about making time to go to the gym, or worry about childcare. I actually LOVE that my children saw the entire transformation taking place before their eyes. The whole family had to make changes. My daughter has only seen a mum who is taking care of herself and confident in herself. 

My confidence wasn't always high though! I used to be terribly insecure. Horrible self esteem. That came from years of off and on bullying all through school. I went to school with the same 30 kids in my class from Kindergarten to Grade 12. I spent a lot of time as a nerdy, geeky, loner. The friendships I had were usually isolated to the activity I was participating in. I was lucky enough to take a trip to Germany when I was 15 and to see SO much more world out there really helped me get through my last few years of high school, when I experience some of the worst bullying. Finally when I turned 18 I moved away from my small town and to the city. Due to all that low confidence though I developed some horrible eating habits. I was near anorexic for most of grade 12, and through my 20s dealt with binging and restricting (and having babies). You bet I ate a lot of feelings. I ate out of boredom because I lacked excitement because I would avoid activities I wanted to participate in. All a bad cycle to be in. I also ate because it was just, well, there. So many fast food options I just didn't have growing up. 

My journey has taught me to be strong inside and out. It has taught me that I have value. It has helped me narrow down my goals and to remember that I'm not just a mum, but I am a WOMAN! 

I feel so blessed that my journey though has given me insight to help other women like me. Moms who are burnt out. Moms that want to be a better example.
