I have struggled with my weight for my entire life. My mom informed me just recently that even as a baby I was at the top percentile for my weight. So if it started literally at the beginning I guess I was meant to be heavy based on my genetics. Right?
I had tried a variety of things. I went to TOPS meeting, didn’t work. I had tests done to see if I had a medical issue that caused me to gain weight. I tried Weight Watchers many years ago and it didn’t work for me. I had come to accept that I was just going to overweight for the rest of my life.
I got to a point where I said to myself enough is enough! I may have predisposition to hang on to fat (my guess not medically proven) but I am not willing to accept this anymore! I changed the way I thought about it?
Not accepting that my weight, unhealthy lifestyle and lack of movement was all genetic! Come on really that is an EXCUSE! I took control of all of it. The way I thought about all of it! My MINDSET.

For me the BIGGEST and I mean the BIGGEST key to my success so far is that I stopped making EXCUSES for my bad habits and choices and I owe them!

I’m going to go brutally honest! You will struggle and possibly not succeed or reach your goals if you make excuses for why you are not doing the work to get there! You will struggle if you don’t have accountability check ins along the way!
