People go through challenges everyday with each one unique, thinking they’re the only ones going through this point in life. I realized that I wasn’t alone and there has got to be someone out there who is going through the exact same thing but how do I find out.
Which leads to this marvelous idea, why not create a blog and platform to track my journey and reach out to others so no-one feels alone.
I want to start by saying my journey started today or 3 months ago but that’s not the truth. My journey is who I am and what I have done to be here now but I can touch on that later on.
Lets just begin at what I believe was the beginning of my health journey.
Back in August I came across a particular challenge that had some amazing transformations that came with a full meal plan. That was the beginning and I stuck to the meal plan for months, lost 5 kg then started putting it back on.
This was a major set back for me mentally. It called for a visit to the doctor who put me on a new direction to try and help get rid of my weight, then I can revisit the area and go back to a more free diet.
I was told not to weigh myself for a month and with Christmas coming up this is the hardest time of the year for weight loss and being summer being comfortable in my clothes is important.
That’s my journey so far and here’s the next stage to my journey.
The first stage is taking the first step, for me that’s the physical side of my life talking about my diet, exercise and my weight loss journey in general.
The second step is the mental aspect. Its all about taking steps to inner happiness, self acceptance, and getting over mental challenges.
I believed that the first step was going to automatically improve everything about the second step. I was totally wrong. Your mental health needs to come first before your physical health.
So I’m going to rephrase my earlier statement.
Step 1 Mental Health
Step 2 Physical Health
So take those first steps, you don’t know what will come from it and it may possibly be the best thing to ever happen.
