After having three children (all born via cesarean section), I found myself incredibly uncomfortable in my own skin. I wasn’t able to really enjoy playing with my kids due to my weight, and I was constantly told that my body was never really going to be able to bounce back to what it once was—sadly, I accepted this, as most moms do.
Additionally, my weight was also causing me health problems. I was diagnosed with high cholesterol and was prediabetic . At my heaviest, I was 233 pounds.
In July 2012, when I was 27 years old, I lost my brother to colon cancer. His death hit me like a ton of bricks, because it was the first time I realized how fragile life really is. This was when I decided to get healthy and take my life back.
Change was a struggle. I started by paying attention to my food choices and working out daily, which was one of the hardest things I’d ever done. Frustrations grew over and over again each time my health goals reset. I hated myself for it.
Through trial and error, I learned what worked and what didn’t. But what I failed to understand was that consistency was the key, and that one cheat day or a missed workout did not automatically undo months of progress.
