How many advertisements do you see a day that ask you "Do you struggle to loose weight? And are you able to keep it off? Like many of you I have been on every diet and every "eating plan". But it took a "wake up call" of high blood sugar that changed my way of thinking. Most people feel that loosing weight has to do with the right diet.... or the right mindset... self-control or all in exercising. What if it had to do with something else?
Was I in good health at the time? What does good health have to do with weight loss? As I began to study I realized a poor diet (lots of fast food), stress, and limited exercise was bringing my health down. I was not sleeping, poor gut health, poor sleep and being tired all the time....was not a sign of good health. But what could I do to become healthy? What would make my body function as a well oiled machine? And would it help me loose weight.
Well it has been 3 years since I told my doctor no to Metformin and began my healthy journey. I did not join a weight loss group or plan. I did not have a support group meeting every week or even weigh myself. I have lost 45 lbs. and except for the few pounds over Covid I have kept it off.
Do you struggle to loose weight and keep it off? Tell me your story!
