“It was then that I found myself scrolling the internet for successful weight-loss stories. I was absolutely captivated by reading through the dozens of stories of people who couldn't walk because they were too heavy. One of the very first stories I came across was of a lady who didn't walk and began her journey by lifting full water bottles.”
Although I didn’t realize it at the time, I was slowly coming out of a dark place, probably one of the darkest places in my life. I had unintentionally figured out my why. And here I was reading success story after success story.
These stories were shaping my mind for what is possible. I was in a dark place MENTALLY. But these people were also in a dark place PHYSICALLY. Why the hell was I feeling so awful? I mean, I was super overweight but I could walk, I could lift more than a water bottle, I could sit and stand easily.
Shame on me for thinking my life was so terrible.
I was so inspired by these stories and knew I needed to have the courage to pull myself out just as they did.
Double tap 💓if you love celebrating success stories as much as I do.
