This is my 50lb weight loss, and although I’m happy with where I am now, I used to think that losing the weight would be the end of it but the toll it took on my mental health is still something that I have to work on everyday. Nobody really talks about that part. The insecurities of being overweight don’t go with the pounds we lose. They stick around and try to torment you and make you feel like your progress isn’t a big deal, but it is! Don’t listen to those negative thoughts and keep on pushing forward!

Just wanted to say to anyone who’s currently on this journey, don’t give up because the end goal is so worth it. We all deserve true confidence and happiness in life.
