Tomorrow is my 37th birthday. I know… I could be your fricken dad! But it’s crazy to me that I’m just NOW experiencing the best health of my entire life. And I know it’s only going to get better.
Look, I’m not jacked. Or cut. But hot damn, I am beginning to see the results of all this work and I’m slowly gaining confidence about my physical appearance - something I’ve HATED my whole life.
Just a few years ago I was over 300 lbs. Today I’m 182. WHAT?! I’m down to 6% body fat and a TON of loose skin 🫠 TBH that part is often hard to accept, but I’m getting better about loving myself and just saying F it.
I feel better than I’ve ever felt and I owe it all to nutrition, exercise, and sleep. Getting these things aligned (which is easier said than done) has made it possible to chip away at the Lyme disease slowly and steadily. My recent Lyme tests just came back and I’m almost 99% free of the mother effer, including all the bonus co-infections I had. I honestly can’t believe it.
Because the old approach for years was to KILL, KILL, KILL with antibiotics, lasers, binders, blood transfusions, chemo - everything, all at once til I was about to explode. I couldn’t detox fast enough. The die off was going straight to my brain, causing the most intense psychosis, depression, panic disorder and constant suicidal thoughts. I became addicted to pain meds, anxiety meds, anti-depressants… I was on so much medication. Barely hanging on, so ready to give up.
I still have work to do, but I finally have the energy, will power and confidence to push forward. I’m just so grateful for @beccawinn , the constant in my life, and for the many loving family, friends and doctors who have helped me believe change was possible.
And to anyone out there struggling with their health, please have hope. Because it can get better. One day at a time. Better health is a long ass journey with constant ups and downs… so please hang on.
