I started at 116kg with a chronic illness that makes exercising difficult to balance without causing flares. It ended up forcing me to leave employment I loved, so now I’m treating regaining my health as a full time job.
I’m down almost 10kg over a six week period. I have been doing cardio alongside yoga and physical therapy, tracking calories in and out, following a low fodmap diet, along with meeting goals for hydration and sleep. I think I look different. I think I look healthier. It’s been so difficult while balancing illnesses and I am really proud of how committed I’ve been.
Over the weekend I saw my parents, and some friends I haven’t seen since I began, and nobody noticed. Nobody said anything, or even looked at me differently. To me the change feels huge.
The logical person in me reminds me that I would never comment on someone else’s body, and that they shouldn’t comment on mine. But I can’t help but feel a little sad about it.
