Meet @erinvictoria77 🇨🇦 I’m Erin, all of my life I’ve been on some diet or another. I’d lose some weight, then gain it back plus. It felt like an endless cycle. Now that I’m in my 40’s, my motivations have changed. I no longer want to lose weight to fit into cute clothes. I want to be strong. And I want to live a long healthy life with my Fiancé (wedding this FRIDAY!) This change of motivation has made it easier for me to get right back up when I fall. I tend to “numb out” with food. Realizing this has made a big difference for me. I’m starting to catch myself before I let this happen, and my episodes of binge eating have become less and less. I try and eat a paleo-ish diet at home, but leave room for treats and living life. I track my calories and macros. I attend aquafit classes 4-5 times a week, and walk 2-3 times a week. I’m getting the courage to go to the gym too! I’ve been up and down, but overall I’m down 56 lbs. On days when I feel discouraged, I pick up a 25 lb weight of my fiancé’s, and remind myself that I’ve lost over 2 of those! That’s a lot of pressure of my joints and organs! The WLstories / @wlbeginning community has been amazing for accountability and support. I encourage everyone to get active in the groups- share your wins and your frustrations! It helps so much to feel like you’re not alone in this. Because you’re not! Together we can accomplish all our goals! Starting tip: just don’t keep starting over. Lose the “I will start over tomorrow” mentality. If you don’t exercise, or don’t eat right, or don’t drink all your water, don’t let everything else go too! It’s better to eat that chocolate bar and then continue your day with healthy foods and exercise, than it is to blow the whole day because of one slip up! . . 🎥 Did you you 90% of our content YOU DONT SEE!!
