The was me at 245
(scroll down to see the new me)
Hi, my name is Steph.
I’m 51 Married for 23 years.
Mom of 2. Grandma of 3.
And I just recently stumbled upon a way to get my old self back… I remember back in my 20s and 30s when I used to….
✅ Have plenty of energy from sun up to sun down
✅ Maintain a slim figure even while living on pizzas and burgers
✅ Eat what I wanted…WHEN I wanted and not gain an ounce
✅ Stay in great shape even though I hardly went to the gym
✅ Feel confident and comfortable wearing fun form fitting tops, tanks, and shorts
That was me. UNTIL, somewhere in my early 40s.
All of a sudden, my once slim and trim petite figure became a magnet for pounds and bulge in all the wrong places.
It seemed my metabolism had SLOWED to a crawl.
Even my health was deteriorating, and I had very little energy throughout the day.
So, I would go to bed earlier at night, hoping that would help me make it through the next day.
Some nights I’d even sleep 12 HOURS, and still be dragging the next day!
I didn’t realize at the time how BAD it had gotten.
That is, until my husband and I were visiting his side of the family in California over the holidays. He had booked a condo on AirBnB for us to stay in.
When I walked in the bathroom I noticed there was a fancy digital scale right in the middle of the floor. We hadn’t had a scale at our house in years.
Hesitantly, I decided to step on…..just to see what it read.
245….What? Surely, it was off.
That moment hit me HARD.
I looked up in the bathroom mirror, and was so ashamed of what I saw.
I looked so tired, puffy and… ahem…“round”
How did it get this bad? How did I let myself go so far?
I thought about the “scale experience” the rest of the day. And that evening as I was getting ready for bed, I made a decision.
My Resuts…
Other things I’ve also noticed since I started doing it is…
✅ My energy has SKYROCKETED. 51 feels more like 30 these days if you ask me!
✅ I have a satisfied feeling after meals and don’t crave snacks all day.
✅ But, I’m actually eating MORE of my favorite foods. Even Homemade Brownies and Cheesecake. All Guilt- Free!
✅ My blood sugar levels are better, eventhough, I’m eating more sweets. Who would have thought?
✅ I sleep more soundly these days, waking up refreshed and energized for the day.
