Almost 2 years postpartum ! I am making this post to share my journey from 284 lbs at 5â3 from pregnancy 2021 - now 2023. It doesnât happen over night. It didnât even happen in a year for me. In fact, itâs an on going still working towards ever changing goals kinda thing. So why am I sharing this? I fell into a very deep depression during my pregnancy. I also didnât even realize how intense postpartum depression is and was until I very slowly began to crawl out. I felt trapped in my body. I couldnât even sing. So I started slow. Metabolic workouts. Light cardio to warm up my body, my lungs, my voice, and my spirit. I am a creature of habit, so I changed my fucking habits. Every few weeks I feel my body getting stronger. I add more workouts, I exercise with @pauldominic_ who is basically a body builder. But if you donât have one of those then YOU have to be your own champion. Find music you like! Ride a bike! Go for a swim! I thought I wanted to lose weight, but itâs so much more. My BRAIN functions better on the days I move my body. Some days I count stretch marks. Some days I hug myself and say thank you to my body. Today is a kind day. Iâve been tiny, Iâve been huge, BUT RIGHT NOW IM HEALTHY. I canât believe that I even have to say this, but no, I am not on any weight loss medication. I have PCOS and am pre-diabetic. My diabetic grandfather died when I was 10 years old. I watched him prick his finger and give himself shots. I do not judge anyone who is trying to live a healthier life. I can only share MY OWN JOURNEY! I just hope to live a long, wonderful, healthy life where I can drink a lot, eat fish, laugh as much as I can, and die happyđ¤đ #grwm #grwmroutine #fitness #skincare
