It was never about the number… until now!

Have you met my dog Becker? If you have been around here for a while you probably have.

It was never about the number…

Until now…

When it hit me the other day, I have officially lost the weight of my dog!!! 🤯

75 – SEVENTY FIVE POUNDS 🥳

In the past I haven’t been great a honoring me, honoring my accomplishments or even who I am. This is a “story” I am shifting in my life. I used to blame me, my body for my various health challenges. The biggest, at 23 facing infertility. This journey has taken a loooong time to heal, deep within, but it’s also set me free. In a way I didn’t know was deep, has been lit within.

To EMBRACE ME whole heartedly! To honor how I FEEL!
But most important, to LOVE MYSELF UNCONDITIONALLY ❤

Shifting our lifestyle has been transformational. It’s never been about the number, and quite honestly I would never suggest anyone change their life for a number, or for anyone else for that matter.

I did this for ME 🥰

My family has benefitted, especially because their wife and mama is not just healthier, but happier. I truly did not know the depth of the physical and emotional pain I was still feeling on a daily basis, until I shifted, and kept shifting until I could look myself in the mirror and say I LOVE YOU. Every single inch of me. That was in 2021.

It was time to really step into my strength. When I faced my “c-section shelf” and embraced it.

I spoke love. Up until then I had lost over 60 lbs and was feeling “good” but my tummy was something I always saw as flawed. I began speaking love to my body every single day, with gratitude for giving me my c-section as it saved my son’s life. I was holding onto the pain of the memories for so long, not able to shift myself forward. Even at a time when our life was turned upside down again (last May) I knew more than ever I had to pour love into me. Although I took a step back from the daily exercise programs I was doing, I took a huge step forward into ME. Even with my c-section tummy, smaller but still there and well loved.

Alignment of who I am and who I want to be. What health is for me and how I want to feel.

A month ago I hit this number, today I celebrate, and also wonder how the heck that was actually ON my body 🤣

It feels good to feel good 🥰
