Dinner is served.

You grab yourself a small plate - no, not the big huge dinner plate you used to grab, a small one to hold a small dinner, a portion for a small girl. You take a little of everything - not a huge dripping cup full like you would before, though. A little to taste. A little something to fuel you. You know how horrible that bloated over stuffed feeling is and you refuse to go back to that again.

Never again. You’re in control.

Portion size is everything. You know what you need to do to finally lose weight and be truly happy: eat only what you need.

You eat slowly. You sip water between each and every bite. You chat about your day and chew each mouthful properly. You’re not racing through your food anymore so you literally need less to feel satisfied.

Before: ~180 lbs (April 2015)

After: 149 lbs (November 2015)

Not my highest weight, as I had already started my journey and lost about 10 pounds before my ‘before’ picture, but it’s still quite a difference. I have a passion for Zumba, which is my main cardio after running, and I have recently begun weight training through free weights and bootcamp classes. Hoping to be more lean and muscle-y by next spring. 

New short film with Dani Vee.
