OVERWEIGHT AND UNHAPPY TO CONFIDENT IN MY OWN SKIN
I’ve struggled with binge eating for as long as I can remember..
Over the years, this has led to weight gain and a lack of confidence in my own skin. Years of yo-yo dieting, an “all-or-nothing” mindset, and an unhealthy relationship with food has been really tough on my body and really tough on my mind too.
The picture on the left was when I first decided that I wanted to compete in a bodybuilding competition. I was at an all-time low, feeling depressed, unconfident, exhausted all the time, and overall just sad at how far I had lost myself. I was determined to make a change and take control of my bad habits. However, life can be unpredictable and after about a year and a half of grinding and prepping for my show (middle pic), I found myself back at square one, struggling with my eating habits and feeling defeated all over again.
I am starting over now once again, but I am using my past experience and knowledge to guide me towards a healthier and happier future. I want others to know that it's never too late to make a change, and that setbacks are just temporary obstacles on the path to success. No matter how far you've fallen, you can always pick yourself back up and start again. I am proof of that, and I am here to support anyone who needs it.
