Hey gerard, Sharon, Carla & the rest of the team, I thought I’d share these photos with you to hopefully help inspire others to take the leap and go for it.
This is before my first cycle in april 2024, 8 months ago compared to this weekends event and trip to Belfast. I am currently on my second cycle.
I used to hate upcoming events, hate having to leave the house, having to dress up and not just stay in those XL/XXL pjs. I dreaded it all to say the least.
Fast forward 8 months
with consistency, hard work, trust in the process, the programme, motivational videos, everything in between and all the other bodyslimmers support, guidance & advice, I am now down 3 sizes, size XL to a size M in clothes & 59lbs down in total. The programme is second to none and has been a huge break in the negative cycle I was allowing spiral more and more out of control.
I lost myself trough my own shitty story, lost myself whilst trying to balance mother hood and all the rest but then bodyslims gave me a whole new perspective on my life and really got me to see my day to day life in a different light, I use to say I can’t do things because I have kids but now it’s “I have to do it because of my kids”, being asked to go for a walk always was replied with “I can’t I have the kids” but what was stopping me from putting the baby in the pram and the older one on his bike?? It was all excuses that I have now changed to my “why” I have to do it and why I have to prioritise myself. We all have our own shitty story but you can either allow yourself settle for the life you have or choose to give yourself the best new lease of life and instead of enduring life, enjoy it, instead of existing, to be living.
My mindset, my mental health, my physical appearance, my confidence and everything in between has changed.
I am no longer that girl on the left, I’m so far away from where she was & getting closer each day to that dare to dream goal.
Stand in the mirror, really look at yourself, question how you feel right now and if you are not truly happy in yourself, it’s time for you to do it for you. Everyone deserves to feel all those good feelings, to feel confident, beautiful & most of all FREE.. free from those shitty feelings and emotions.
There’s a whole bigger picture for me right now on my weight loss journey, being 100% with my inputs has took my focus away from the scales because I’m certain it will all align and it has been right up until now.
My focus is on all my small NSVs, living in the moment and not missing a beat, enjoying my life instead of enduring my life, there’s such a bigger picture to your journey, it’s one so worth chasing. As Gerard says “get the scales in the kitchen right & the scales in the bathroom will follow”. It’s a mental shift that has happened without realising and honestly I feel so FREE!!
Don’t you want to feel free in your own mind and body?
Do it for you, prioritise yourself, dare to dream & surrender to win.
I promise you, you will never regret it.
The feeling im feeling right now and I’m not at my dare to dream yet is a feeling I’ve dreamt of and now my reality!! It only gets better!
Thank you bodyslims and my bodyslimmers on Instagram for everything! I’ve gained so much more from this programme, from new friendships, deeper understanding of myself, my perspective on things, a more positive approach to each day, self belief and all the rest, something that was unimaginable to me back at the start of April.
