I have always struggled with my weight. Even since childhood, I was the 'chubby' friend. While all the girls in high school were stick thin & prepubescent, I had hips & curves & D cups by the age of 14. This made me insanely self conscious, not only of being different, but of being so much bigger. I tried everything I could, striving to be 'skinny.' Skipping breakfast, throwing away my lunch, starving myself, binge eating, eating small amounts of poor nutritional food, exercising excessively, throwing my food up after eating it. You name it and I have been there, all the while hating the person in the mirror, with an intense passion. Through these poor diet practices, it created issues within my body. My digestion was basically non-existent. I would feel guilty for eating. I was drinking almost daily. I was looking for attention & gratification in all the wrong places. Eventually I hit my breaking point & realised I needed to turn myself around and find some real help. I started on a nutrition plan and haven't looked back since. Not only did I start to notice differences in the shape & size of my body, but also within. I didn't wake up and immediately wish the day was over so I could go back to bed. I could eat without painful bloat. My digestion became like clock work. My intense pustular pimples & oily skin cleared up. Now, finally, I have reached a point where I am on my journey in a safe & healthy way. I eat a whole, healthy and mostly plant based diet. I love food again, I can eat out without feeling guilty afterwards. I exercise because I enjoy it, which is never something I thought I would say. My life is vibrant & full of energy. It is almost inconceivable to me that the girl on the left & the girl on the right are the same person. Your mind & body are one. You cannot be happy in your body if you are unhappy in your mind. Reach out to me if you would like to know more about my nutrition plan, or browse the products in my online store. UPDATE: I have had so many people reach out privately that I have created a separate page for this info.
Please feel free to share your story with me too! Happy & Healthy, Holly XO
