| Introduction | Sometimes when you think something is over, you realise that it's not over and that it has only just begun. When I thought my weight-loss and body image battle was finally over, it had just gone into top gear. I didn't realise it until much later though. I'm sharing my journey with you over here. I will share about eating, exercise, my food/ eating confusion and how my body reacted to various elements. I will also share about my emotions, lessons I've learned and what motivated me. It's not a perfect journey to perfection. This is much more about the struggles of an average woman in her forties maintaining a comfortable weight while I'm in the process of learning to love my body every single day. Although it's my journey, I stand on the shoulders of all the people who have helped and motivated me. I stand on the shoulders of those who listened to me when I was a crying mess and who carried me when I was too tired to walk. I stand on the shoulders of those who accepted me and loved me. Please share your thoughts and stories too - we can all help and learn from one another! |
