The Sweat. The time. The Devotion. It Pays Off #TRUTH

So often I hear ladies complaining about the need to lose weight. I was one of them. I hid my weight very well, with my height (bonus for me, one good thing about being tall – the fat spreads itself evenly :P),baggy clothing, hid from the camera’s at parties and hardly looked in the mirror unless it was to wash my face. 

Inside I was humiliated and ashamed of what I had become….So one morning I woke up and I decided to take my life into my own hands again and as the saying goes “Only you can make yourself happy” – and that is EXACTLY what I decided to do…and if I can do it so can ANYONE else.

My aim with this blog post is to just try inspire ladies out there who perhaps find themselves in the same boat I found myself in a year ago. I decided to make a “Lifestyle” change for good and so can you #LIVEHEALTHY, make the right choices when it comes to what food you put in your mouth, exercise and just enjoy life!

I was embarrassed to put my progress pictures up, when I look back at what I looked like when I started out in January 2011, I cannot believe how much I have transformed and what hard work and dedication can do. I AM putting up my pictures because I am proud of me and hopefully my story can help you too J

I changed my life, I am so much happier and feel if I set my mind to anything in the future I CAN accomplish it and everyone should feel like that!

So here’s to no more Yo-Yo dieting and no more gaining back the weight I have now lost to date….HERE’S TO HEALTHY LIVING….

This isn’t genetics this is hard work, sweat, time, devotion and finally it has paid off – nothing in life comes easy, we read that all over these days but if you really want to make the changes you will but you have to work for it, that will probably mean giving up things you once liked but trust me in the end its always worth it…you just got to get over the hurdle of taking yourself out of your comfort zone for a while to achieve the goals you have set for yourself.

HAPPY HEALTHY LIVING YOU GUYS!

Hopefully I have managed to inspire at least one person reading this today
