Hi, I’m Alyssa and in July I reached my weight loss goal of 145 lbs. I started at 241 lbs and i’m about 5'4.
When I reached my goal I swore I would be happy and not care about my weight anymore. Today, only half of that is true. I don’t care about my weight anymore, as I am consistently gaining more muscle in the gym. :)
However, once I reached my goal, I was still not happy. I was still struggling with trying to be positive with myself, especially my body. I gave up on my harsh diet and turned my cheat meals into cheat weeks. But you know what? It felt so great. I worked so hard for over a year and a half to lose my weight and I deserved to indulge.
I stopped weighing myself and in december I decided to just for the hell of it. I gained 5 ish pounds. I freaked out, went back on my harsh diet and was instantly unhappy again.
Then I made a new years resolution to cut out every negative thought I had about my body and replace those thoughts with body positive thoughts.
Slowly but surely, I started to really believe what I was telling myself. I’m going on about a month strong of being body positive every day and I can now truly say I love myself more than I ever have.
In the picture I submitted, the one on the left I am at about 240-250. In the one on the right (the most recent full body picture I have of me, excuse the mix match lol) I don’t even know how much I weigh. I am definitely in the 150s but like I said, I am happier, stronger and more confident than ever.
Seriously, fake it until you make it with the compliments and soon you’ll believe them!
Message me with any questions, problems, advice, etc!
