| Introduction | My journey will take a lifetime. As a teen, I went through weight gain following multiple knee surgeries,a badly broken ankle and the lengthy recovery processes. Entering my undergraduate degree in another province, coupled with the temptations of being on my own, I found myself treating my body poorly with diet & (lack of) exercise. I was feeling uncomfortable in my own skin. I wasn’t treating my body with the respect it deserved. I began to make changes. One change and one step at a time. I began sleeping better, feeling better and my confidence came flooding back. Now over a decade later, 6 sizes smaller, and stronger than ever, I know what my body & my mind need to be healthy. It wasn’t always easy, and sometimes I made mistakes. But along the way I realized it didn’t have to be temporary, I could make this ‘health’ thing my life long journey. |
