My Story: Losing 160 lbs After a Lifetime of Struggle (Part 1)
This episode is one of the most personal I’ve ever shared.
Part 1 of my 160-pound weight loss journey dives into the story before the transformation — the parts I don’t usually talk about online. I open up about my childhood and being born into a broken home, always being the “big one,” dealing with hypothyroidism, and how I stayed active but still kept gaining. I share the emotions, the insecurities, and the breaking point that came when I hit 298 lbs and realized I couldn’t live like this anymore.
This episode ends with the moment I decided to revisit the possibility of weight loss surgery — and the beginning of everything changing.
