HOW I LOST 100LBS IN 1 YEAR ( MY STORY )

Reflecting on the past year, my weight has been a persistent challenge. The struggle with my body image has been a source of unhappiness, affecting me deeply. As I approached 2024, I was determined not to carry the same negative mindset about my weight. Through consistent effort and the support of the right people, I managed to shed 100lbs (2501b → 159|b), but there's more progress to be made.
Sharing personal struggles like this is always daunting, but Persistently showing up for yourself and maintaining consistency can lead to significant achievements in life.
My goal for 2024 is to be honest with myself and embrace vulnerability by posting about my journey, regardless of others' opinions. I've reached a point where I am content both mentally and physically.
To those still in the process of losing weight, please don't lose heart-it takes time, but the journey is worthwhile.
Keep pushing forward, and don't give up on yourself

Many people have been asking me about where I got my sport bra or outfit from. I've actually created an Amazon storefront, which I've linked in this description. So, if you want to know where I got everything, you can simply click the link and browse through it.

    Some of these aunties need deliverance. I’m glad you prioritised your peace of mind and left that church. I don’t know why some people think it’s okay to comment on anyone’s body or life choices especially at their big age. And it’s always unsolicited, like who asked you? Mind the God you serve and the business that pays you. I feel so upset that you had to go through all of that but I’m grateful you’ve overcome that stage in your life and you’re becoming the person you want to be ❤❤

    Good morning! My takeaway is work on your mental health FIRST, and the weight will go. Thanks for being vulnerable. I'm sure it's gonna help thousands of us, it will not go to waste. I also want to add that the devil really uses people to hit us at our weakest spot and the only way he'll stop hitting us there is wen it becomes a strong spot and then he'll just move to another spot. The good news is that, we can just apply the same principle to that other spot. But I am happy that you acknowledged that it was when you cried out to God from the depth of your heart that change came. Gid heard and answered your prayer and gave you the thought to seek professional help. Sometimes we get so superspiritual that we forget that it is GOD Who has given knowledge and wisdom to the psychiatrist, the nutritionist the gym teacher and that is just as healing as a miracle of everything just being fixed immediately. So we give God the glory! So thanks again

    You know @byMarieA, I'm still going thru the "everyone telling me what to do " stage. I remember I lost over 30 pounds and they started saying stop now, the SAME persons who said do something! Thanks to this video I have found the fix. The devil is real, haters will hate and we can't stop them, but we can fix our mental health so it doesn't matter. I would say, for myself, I have to just hear only what Gid says about me and focus on that. Psalm 139 says 'i am fearfully and wonderfully made, marvelous are Your works O Lord!". Gonna hold on to that

    I saw your short about you weight loss, cried; came to watch your story and cried again. I’m 5’9 and used to be 170 lbs. every woman in my life told me I was too thin and my head was too big for my body. I looked sick. I don’t feel like my diet had changed but it crushed my spirit and my activity level plummeted. I gained SO much weight, the last time I looked at the scale was at 252 and then I stopped tracking but I know I kept gaining. I’m still in the middle of my weight loss journey. I’m down to 225 lbs rn but still feel like I take up so much space. Your video has me feeling like I’m not as alone as I feel. Thank you

    Okay this is literally me! I was 164-170 ( played sports a lot in hs) and that weight was amazing for me even though people thought it was wasn’t which was weird since I’m taller than the average women lol. I then gained to 260 after having 4 babies and decided I needed to change and be better for them. And now after 5 months I am at 228 and feel great. Still need to lose 28 to get to 200 which is the goal. Congrats for you though!🎉

    Girrrrrl, I went through almost the same things you did. These Ghanaian family members can ruin your self esteem and you'll be a full grown adult wondering why you're struggling with so many issues. My dad also would always be on me about my weight, telling me I eat too much and always commenting about what I was eating. I started to starve myself in my teens, lost a whole bunch of weight and still wasn't happy with myself. I was depressed, weight up and down all through my 20s. Now in my 30s I'm starting to find myself and start to love myself with the help of a therapist. I applaud you for your hard work girl💛

    Sis being a Ghanaian is sometimes hard I had those issues with my skin tone I was very fair as a kid and grew up to be darker. I would hear people tell me or my mom that I’m too dark and that my colour has changed sometimes they would even hint that I was so much more prettier as a child than as an adult it’s terrible how we speak to each other. Even Now I deal with weight gain myself and hearing people say I’m too big etc it’s an on going cycle I’m so sorry you had to go through it but through it all you came out so VICTORIOUS …. It’s all a process and I’m glad you overcame your struggles and are thriving!❤😊😘 you look amazing!

I teared up when I heard your story. You have no idea how wonderful it felt to finally find someone who has gone through what I have, and to know that you have also gone on to have a healthy body gives me incredible hope. My BMI is 40.1. I, too, am terribly overweight. I hope I can be like you one day and finally live a healthy life. I want you to know you made a difference in my life, Hanna. I hope you post more content, especially about your journey of overcoming your eating disorder. Best of luck!

    As an oldest daughter, that was taught respect is everything for elders, this caused me a lot of turmoil, as I got older, because I felt like I couldn’t check adults who needed to be checked because they were older than me. But please understand that when you’re being “respectful“ or trying to keep the peace, whose peace are you keeping? if you were to do something disrespectful, they will call you out on it. Why is it only disrespectful when it’s towards them but never towards you. I know it’s a lot harder said than done, but I pray that you’re able to stand up for yourself as respectfully as you can, because you don’t deserve to be made to feel that way from people who do not have to live in your skin for a single day. You’re beautiful and I’m so proud of you.❤

    this is really not the end of your journey. you need to keep working hard and going to therapy and always being analytical about your thought processes so you can keep these mindsets and behaviours in check. you can’t question when people will be happy for you and stop making comments about your looks/weight. you can’t question why they do what makes them say that. because you have no control over it. you have to look out for yourself and what makes you truly happy without having anybody else’s voice influencing that. i feel like changing the thought patterns that have been ingrained in you since childhood is harder than losing the weight and i am very happy for you to see you are on a journey to achieving that.

    You’re such an inspiration to me right now. I also dealt with EDs since the age of 11 because of people’s comments, especially my parents. I found out my behaviour was ED when I was 25 and did therapy for it. I’m regressing a little (now I’m doing EMDR, like you did!) but your journey is the healthiest I’ve ever heard of. You went to therapy, you did EMDR, you got a nutritionist and personal trainer to make sure you did everything right and that is such a massive achievement. You seem so at peace and I’m so happy for you. It gives me hope for my own journey ❤️

    I'm crying 🥺 you story is so relatable... As a slim girl I get"why don't you eat more" comments and back handed complements alot... But I sat down I looked at myself and said I am genuinely happy with the body I have and if I want to change anything... I'd change it only if it comes from me There's more to life than matching up to the societal standards the world would always change it's heart

    I’m so sorry people were using every opportunity to deal out judgmental energy and not actually watching out for your well being. I’m sure some just didn’t know what they were doing, but I’m sure some knew they weren’t being kind too. I’m so glad you found your way to a healthier place and I hope you find the emotional healing you deserve ❤

    Watching this video from my television, I had to use my phone to leave a comment. You brought me to tears sharing your pain, then made me smile soo hard when you became victorious! You're a beautiful soul, no matter what your weight is or was. I can see that about you. I can also see that you're happier now and will be happy still, at your target weight. Congratulations 🎊 👏 💐 🥳 You deserve all the happiness you can take and then some ❤. I hope you never allow miserable people to be your company again. You are a star 🌟 and the world could use more people who are beautiful inside and out, like you.

    Thank you so much for sharing ur story! I’m so proud of ur journey and I related to so much of this. I’ve always been just the chubbier kid and also had a community of people from temple that I’d see every week and adults would make comments. I was literally 10 years old when a 50 yr old man made a very direct comment about my body and how I need to lose weight to look pretty as a little girl. I was already struggling with bullying in school and hearing comments at home. It was just so triggering coming from someone you’d thought u could trust and look up to, I just locked myself in the bathroom and just cried. The worst part is I was still healthy at the time but these comments and stress made me spiral and develop bad eating habits. Im still on and off with my weight loss journey I’m a bit of a perfectionist so im kinda all or nothing which isn’t helpful. It’s just difficult rn bc im exhausted trying so hard to be seen bc nobody ever sees you if youre fat in this society and it’s fucking hard.
