When I gained weight , I was the girl that you’d say “what happened to her ?!” Or if you didn’t like me , you’d probably say “ She got so fat ! Yes!!! Lol”
Let me just say that the fall from being considered ‘attractive’ at some point in your life to the pic you see on the left is not easy lmao. I still thought I looked beautiful even when I was fat but the world started treating me different. People became unkind to me and I started to change. I began to believe that I didn’t deserve for ppl to treat me nice because I was fat and disgusting. I’m trying not to sugar coat it here because it’s an unfortunate truth.
I felt like Rob Schneider in that movie #hotchick . Watch it and you’ll get the point.
Yet, that didn’t motivate me to lose weight. In fact , I ate more due to being depressed. It was a downward spiral.
Weight loss is not about looking ‘hot’. It’s about being the best version of you. I decided that I didn’t want to die at 50 because my heart finally gave out. I wanted to be healthy , and run after my 2 year old without feeling like I was going to run out of breath.
Now , I have fun with the weight loss and play dress up 😊 . It’s something I deprived myself of in my mid twenties because trying on clothes was torture back then .
Somebody asked me today if I had before and after of my body. The truth is, when I was fat I used hide from the camera. I didn’t take semi naked pics during my journey because it would have demotivated me. It’s the way some ppl react to the scale. They rather not know or weigh in. Instead , I used to look at pics of ppl I wanted to look like , put in the gym work , and pretend my body was at it’s goal weight. Sometimes you have to think ‘as if’ so you can stay motivated. It helps you also enjoy life a bit more.
I used to hate that pic on the left so much. There’s dried up years all over it 😣. It was my birthday , I just had a baby , and I thought I looked like Shrek. Furthermore, the pic was taken at a club and I felt insanely huge compared to the other #Miami party girls. But I was a good sport about it and posed for the pic.
My being fat made me depressed because it was indicative of how ‘out of control’ I let a part of my life become. I ate away at food to relieve stress , to celebrate , to make me happy , and I ate because I was sad. Basically -Food had become the epicenter of my life.
How did I lose it all ? I #eatclean #traindirty and #waisttrain
My life is finally at a good balance of family , work , play , and food 😄
a concept: Harry Potter with his mother’s hair and father’s eyes instead of vice versa.
Harry with fiery dark red hair and soft hazel eyes please and thank you
i imagine this is how harry and draco’s first meeting would have gone then haha
can you imagine how much more confused arthur would have been in that scene where he first meets harry 😂
his eyes would probably sweep right over harry at the breakfast table, and then he would freeze and have to do a mental tally of his children
I can see Fred and George really going with it too…
“Come on Dad, don’t you remember Harry?” “Next you’ll tell us you don’t remember Craig” “Or Ethel” “Or Annie“ “Or Ryan”
