What an accomplishment. 𝗜 𝗮𝗺 𝘀𝗼 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝗺𝘆𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗱𝗮𝘆 through good food, supplements (like beef organ pills!), and exercise.⁣

𝘉𝘶𝘵 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘮𝘺 𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘥. This time is different than all the others because of my 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗳𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 & 𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝗺𝘆𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳, and therefore more often than not, I am making decisions that the best version of me would make. ⁣
⁣
It started at the beginning of 2024 with my goal book. Then my goal book recorded into a 45-minute voice note that I listen to almost daily. I am so focused on my goals, the version of life that includes abundance and health in EVERY aspect, that the weight loss has been done with so much more ease. ⁣

𝘐𝘵 𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘴 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨. I still have to encourage myself to go work out when I don’t feel like it. I still have to think about my goals in moments where there are a lot of desserts and things I used to eat too much of. I still have to go grocery shopping fairly often for fresh food when I don’t enjoy going. ⁣
⁣
But I am so focused on this BEST ANDREA, that the rest flows so much easier. ⁣

Every pound down from here is territory I haven’t been in, in 13+ years. 𝗛𝗢𝗪 𝗘𝗫𝗖𝗜𝗧𝗜𝗡𝗚! I plan to be down 70 by the end of the year. No biggie 😉 Here I go. ⁣

Here are the reasons I’m not panicking or deeply upset about having been stuck at my 39-lb weight loss for the last 2.5 weeks, when before I was losing weight pretty much every day and certainly every week:⁣
⁣
1. First and foremost, 𝗜 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱. I’ve lost 39 freaking pounds! I feel beautiful, happy, healthier and waaaaay more fit and agile than at the start of 2024. ⁣
⁣
2. There are so many 𝗰𝗹𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝘆 𝗰𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗲𝗮𝗿 (like this blue dress) that were too small for so so so long, and once I lose more weight, they will be too big and I’ll have to get rid of them. So I’m going to enjoy them now. ⁣
⁣
3. 𝗠𝘆 𝘀𝗸𝗶𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗮𝘂𝘁. I plan to not have excess skin at the end of my journey, through slow, healthy weight loss, tons of water, organic home made creams …and prayer (wink)!⁣
⁣
4. 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲. When I consider what I’m putting in my body compared to before ….it’s night and day. I used to sit and eat boxes of chocolates and cakes and cookies and I couldn’t stop myself. 𝘕𝘰𝘸, 𝘐’𝘮 𝘪𝘯 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘭 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘮𝘺 𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘤𝘰𝘣 𝘰𝘧 𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘯 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘣𝘶𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘰𝘳 𝘤𝘰𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘦𝘴𝘦 𝘱𝘶𝘥𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨. ⁣

5. In the past, if I didn’t lose for this long while eating well/exercising, I would cry, I would overeat, I would lose focus. Nope. Not this time. 𝗜 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝘀𝗼 𝗺𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 and 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘢𝘺 𝘣𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐’𝘮 𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘥 𝘰𝘧. ⁣
