Knowing the 𝘩𝘰𝘸 is necessary.  Understanding the 𝘸𝘩𝘺 is illuminating. ✨⁣
⁣
More often than not I’m often asked “how” I did it. I’ll get several DM’s, emails, hell even texts messages from people asking me “how did you do it, how did you lose 300lbs!?”⁣
⁣
Every single interview and podcast that I’ve been blessed to be part of the main focus is always the “how”. ⁣
⁣
The thing is we need to stop hyper focusing on the how. The how is interchangeable. There’s MILLIONS upon MILLIONS forms of publication written on “how” to lose weight, “how” to change your lifestyle, “how” to gain more confidence, etc. ⁣
⁣
What’s mainly important is the “why”. The “why” is what gives you strength, the “why” is what gives you purpose. The “why” needs to be so important that it pushes the “how” into effect. ⁣
⁣
There’s an old saying - “You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink” - the how is getting the horse here, the why he’s not drinking is simply because he’s not thirsty. ⁣
⁣
You’ve been given tools your whole life on “how” to do it. It’s literally been drilled into your skull and you don’t even realize it. People can literally take you by the wrist and direct you on to “how” to do something but you still won’t do it. ⁣
⁣
Your “why” is what is going to get the job done. ⁣
⁣
My why is constantly changing, the main focus behind my why stays the same, but for the most part as you go through this journey your why will change and the why will bring you closer to every single goal you want to break. ⁣
⁣
You’re focusing on asking those who’ve done it “How can I lose 10, 15, 50, 100, even 200lbs”, but honestly does there answer matter? Their method may not be your method. ⁣
⁣
I bet you’ve rarely continued to ask yourself why you’re doing it.
⁣
So I ask you one simple question today, What is your Why, and is your Why important enough to push you to surpass your current goals? ⁣

This is one of the most uncomfortable topics to share with everyone but here it is. Throughout my entire life I have struggled with my weight. It has kept me from doing so many things that I have wanted to do, due to the lack of confidence. I’ve been bullied, I’ve been laughed at, I’ve felt ashamed due to other people’s snarky comments. I’ve also tried everything to lose weight and nothing has worked. After years of being held back I’ve decided to have a Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy which is scheduled for October 2nd. I want to be as open as possible about this lifestyle change and I am soooo so so excited to see how the rest of my life will be thanks to this surgery. If you’d like to follow my VSG journey I have an Instagram account (that I’ve tagged in this post) dedicated to every step of this process! Support is greatly appreciated and I would love to answer any questions that anyone has ❤️🤗
