Set realistic expectations. Things don’t happen quickly and don’t be afraid to ask for help.
There are stages of a weight loss journey that seem so hard, so long and some days you will absolutely feel like you're digging your way to the top. There are just as many days that you feel like you're already on top. Like there is nothing that can stop you or that you cannot overcome.
In the start, take body photos. You are absolutely going to hate those photos. Not because there is anything to hate, but this may be the first moment you are real and raw with yourself. This is your starting step. Also, be open/honest about your journey. Make people tired of hearing about it. This will help you be accountable to yourself and to them. Finally, this is a lifelong roller coaster journey. It will have its ups and downs. Highs and lows and even loop de loops. Stay buckled in. Don’t get off the ride just because it isn’t going right! You are worth every effort you are putting!
Jamie gives us an update on his running schedule and goals since our last conversation
I feel like most of my life was spent in my comfort introverted bubble, not really experiencing things because I was fearful of what others thought. I thrive with having new experiences, meeting new people, etc.
