Kimberly's Story


This is Kimberly's story. She is one of my absolute inspirations on Instagram. I've been following her for awhile and she is such an amazing and fun girl. Her story is so powerful check her out! She's amazing! 


About 2 years ago I started my weight loss journey. I went on a starvation diet only eating 500/600 calories a day i lost 30lbs.. My mom, dad, and boyfriend all noticed I was going down a bad path. Thats when my mom and dad forced me to go to a weight watchers meeting with them both of them because they have both done weight watchers for 10 plus years and had progress. I went to my first meeting on a sunday and fell in love with my leader and my fellow members! I signed up that day to join weight watchers! I went to every single Sunday meeting no matter what. I followed program exactly and lost an additional 35 lbs making my total loss 65lbs!! With out weight watchers I would have gained the first 30lbs I lost on the starvation diet without a doubt! I'm so thankful for how far I have come! I am now an avid runner and love working out. I'm a lifetime member and have maintained my weight loss while gaining muscle! Im so proud of myself and I made my Instagram to help others achieve there goals and have additional support whenever needed! It should also be noted that I do struggle with an eating disorder called body dysmorphic disorder and I am dedicated to kicking its ass and so far so good!!!! Im always here to answer questions and help to the best of my ability and thank everyone for their support as well!

Halle's Story

Hi Everyone!!! We are back with my FAVORITE segment! Weight loss story shout outs!  And who better to kick it off then the super inspiring, Halle! She is a gorgeous girl, who has continued to persevere even when times get tough, I am so excited to share her story with you!             I wish I could say that this is the first time in my life that I have been on a “diet,” but unfortunately, that isn’t the case.   Call it genetics, lifestyle, nature or nurture, but I’ve always been a little curvier than most.   As an athlete growing up and competitively through high school, most of my teen years were spent eating what I wanted, but exercising enough to maintain what I saw as a reasonable, athletic figure.   Standing at a little over 5’9”, I carried it well. Enter: college, a newfound love for the bar hopping scene, dining halls with way too many choices, and little physical activity combined with an even sma...

The Trials and Tribulations of a Weight Loss Journey

Image
Well hey! How have you been? It has been way too long, probably why I gained 30 pounds back. This post is all about brutal honesty, because I need the hard truth right now. I have been on this journey for let's say over 5 years now. I did weight watchers, went to weekly meetings, hit my goals, and ended up as a lifetime member even losing 15 pounds under my goal. I was on top of the world. I was feeling myself. Then this thing called life happened. I transferred colleges, had less time to meal prep, all while working full time. I had like no down time to stay active, plan my days out. This was when it started spiraling down. I ended up graduating 15 pounds heavier then when I started at Temple. I thought it was the Freshman 15 not the Senior 15. But, I was still happy, and I still looked good. Then the adult life started- you know how all of us millennials complain about being adults? Well I was actually excited to prove myself in the adult world. Upon graduation I had two amazin...

Don't Forget to Get Up, After you Fall Down

Image
Well, it's been awhile. I can honestly say I was pushing through hell for the last 7 months. With Senior Year and working 2 jobs, I barely had time to function. But the end is near and graduation is around the corner with a full time job offer. So exciting times ahead! I have to say I seriously struggled over these past months and I have really lost sight of what is important. Me. I forgot how to love myself and respect my body and my needs. Before this I worked my way down to the 120s by eating right and getting my workouts in. But over this stretch of time, I really started struggling. It would be harder to find time to pack my meals, and I would call and order daily. I wouldn't get time to workout because I would feel overwhelmed and exhausted by the time I got home every day. I really started to lose hope and I just gave up. I let the weight pile on. Today I am 20 pounds heavier then my lowest. Part of me wants to give up. And not start all over. Because that is ...
