Bianca's weight loss journey: a sweet reminder [part 2.1]steemCreated with Sketch.

in #life7 years ago

I took this picture in the beginning of 2014. I covered my face because I was so ashamed of taking that photo. Back then I was still picturing myself too fat. What a silly!

Even though I say I lost around 20kg, I believe I lost much more, but I never properly measured myself, so I know I also gained lots of muscle. I looked better when 20kg off then when 30kg off. Weight is not everything!

Now I'm here, thinking that with the same effort but different mind set I'll achieve the same or better results and be able to live a life with quality. I'm so proud for what I've done in the past and for doing that all over again.

Hope you all have a nice day and thanks for reading,
B

Haha not sure about it

Weight is definately not everything. It is much more important YOU feel good in YOUR own body. Keep up tha good work!

Word! Self love makes the difference. Thanks!

Hi Bianca - it is great that you now know it is all about mindset. Another Steemian asked for advise about weight loss. I wrote a long response then I included it in a blog post. Here it is . https://steemit.com/life/@momogrow/healthy-eating-tips-a-new-steemian-seeking-weighloss-advise-this-might-help-someone-else-or-maybe-you-have-some-other-tips-to
Actually I realize that the best advice were the last 2 of the 13 -on the post - they were:

  • Envisage how you want to look - remind yourself of the reason why you want to look like this or the reason why you want to lose weigh. It will help you to stay focused.
  • Do not forget to breathe and to love yourself.

Hi @momogrow, I'll check it out! These two tips are really precious, I'm trying to live it fully, since it can be applied for any life challenge. Thanks!!!

@bkdbkd you are welcome. Please let me know if you kind hte other tips helpful and whether you have any other questions. I am actually thinking of starting to blog about advise I give in everyday life . It is a hobby not a profession. :)

you go girl!! you are beautifuuuuuuuul in every single wayy

Thanks, Miga! Je bent heel lief 💖

The image of self is a very hard one to get right. But I do believe that's the most important part. Weight says absolutely nothing if you work out and gain muscles while losing fat. I know it's a handle to hold onto, but the most important part is if you're happy with what you're seeing in the mirror.

Definitely, even not being in my best shape now, I definitely live myself better now than years ago when I took that picture. It surely helps lots. Thanks!!

Hey @bkdbkd, I could not agree more, your mind is your best weight loss tool.

Wish you the best luck and you look beautiful no matter what!!

My dear, I am so proud of you. Not so much because you want to lose weight and therefore cannot eat or drink things you like, but especially because you are in the company of exyle and others who eat and drink all the time. I know he is supporting you, but you have to do it all by yourself and that's difficult.
But you do it all the same and that's something you can by very proud of YOURSELF. Good luck !

Lief! Thank you so much. It is indeed difficult with those food lovers, but must be done! :) I'm sure I'll get there soon :*
