I used to hide behind oversized clothes and excuses. I was 178 lbs at 5’4”, always “starting Monday always giving up by Wednesday. One day I saw a picture of myself and realized I was done feeling tired weak and invisible.
I started small daily walks, tracking meals and learning to lift weights properly. Fast forward 10 months I’m down to 135 lbs, lifting heavier than I ever imagined, and most importantly I feel alive again.
