So, while this is called Dietbet and there are people "competing" to be the winner; we are all here for our own reasons. I am here competing not against any of you, but competing with myself. This is my race and i'm on my own journey. And I will get to the finish line, but at my pace.
I was not always a large person. I was very active and fit. I have had some ups and downs in life and made poor choices and created a very unhealthy lifestyle for myself. I was engaged to a wonderful man and have a beautiful 6 year old son who is my WORLD. But I was with a man who never supported me or pushed me to be the greater person that I know I could be. And it was overall unhealthy.
I made a choice a year and a half ago to leave to create this person who I have always wanted to be. The person who I know I am inside. In this process, I have lost many things. Including faith in myself! Never lose that!
I have gained it back and have gained many wonderful things. I have become a stronger woman most definitely. I have learned so many lessons.
I am done with all things detrimental to me. This includes certain people and food and any unhealthy habits! :) It is MY time. And I'm going to make the most of it! Thank you to everyone who have messaged me and wished me Good Luck. You are all awesome and I am rooting for you too!
We can all do this and keep on going even after this is done. :)
