I have tried to make several different posts the last 4 days and I just kept deleting them feeling like I was just repeating past posts and I don't want to bore the few people who actually read this so I thought since my 1year weightloss is coming up I would like to reflect on my journey!
I remember this time last year like it was yesterday. I remember how I felt, pretty much what I was doing, and most importantly how I looked.
I had a c-section in Feb then was drowning with post partum depression and depression from my weight on top of being a new mom with a colic baby that also had acid reflux. Let me tell ya that was the closest thing to hell on earth that I can describe. Don't get me wrong I love my child more than life itself, I am completely obsessed with her and couldn't imagine life without her.. but I also was dealing with an unsupportive, lazy, short tempered husband. He wasn't like that before we got married but now he is back to pretty much his old self,when we were dating, so I won't get much into that. We were new parents and it was really hard!
I have overcame 2 types of depression, learned time management with working out, working part time, keeping up with my wife and mommy duties, have lost 80 pounds, have learned how to love myself, have pushed myself more than I could've ever imagined, ran two-5k's, and have matured a lot.
I have learned how to believe in myself and know I can do anything if I can put my mind to it!
I have grown in my faith in God.
I have gone from a size 18 pants to a size 10-12 (depending on the pants), a size 2X shirt to a medium in juniors!
My mind and the way I think has changed more than I think my body has!
I think more about food and working out than I have ever thought about anything else!
This past year has been hands down the hardest yet but it was COMPLETELY worth it!
May 1, 2013 is my anniversary for my journey and each year I will be celebrating it as I would any other important occasion!
