Looking through old pictures from college. Sheesh. This was my freshman year 2006. 260lbs! All I did was party because I was so depressed and scared and anxious. I was too anxious to go to class because I felt too fat. This was summer time and I was wearing 2 shirts and a hoodie because I felt so disgusting. This pattern of abusing alcohol and food continued in my life for 7 hard years until I lost my mom and realized I was sick and tired of being sick and tired.
Fast forward to me now at 28 years old. I’m 149lbs and I’m on my way to becoming an instructor at SoulCycle. Am I still anxious and depressed sometimes? HELL YEAH but now I know how to deal with it. I don’t hide, I seek help and I do things that make me feel good. Endorphins make me feel better than alcohol ever did. My friends/community lift me up when I feel I can’t lift myself up. I eat healthy because it makes me feel amazing and fuels me for the things that I need to do. I read blogs like this because I’m so inspired by everyone working and pushing for what they want. Thanks for the constant motivation!
