My Real Weight Loss Journey: An Honest Start

Weight loss isn’t a one-size-fits-all formula; it’s a deeply personal journey that often involves discovering what works uniquely for you. When I decided to embark on my own weight loss journey, I knew it wouldn’t be about quick fixes or strict diets but about creating a lifestyle I could maintain. I’m excited to share this journey with you, grounded in authenticity, self-discovery, and some transformative insights.

The videos I’ve shared capture this journey in real-time—the highs and lows, the challenges and achievements. Each step is shaped by lessons I’m learning, and I hope these glimpses into my journey will inspire others who feel it’s time to take that first step. Here are the first two for you to review.

I started off playing it “safe” sharing some of my routines as well as some the things I already knew as well as things I am learning.


The Realization and the Resolve

Starting out, I knew that consistency would be key. I wanted more than just to lose weight; I wanted to feel truly good, energized, and free. Watching back my initial videos reminds me of the commitment I made: to show up for myself, even on tough days. This isn’t just about numbers on a scale; it’s about living fully.

For me accountability is key is well as consistency. So as I added Zestal Trim to my routine, I wanted to document it. I started by doing for 4 day trial and I shared

Finding My Rhythm

Early in the journey, I quickly learned that small, steady changes often had the biggest impact. Tracking my progress on video is bringing me a new sense of accountability, but it also allows me to see the shifts in mindset and energy as well as in my body that aren’t always visible on the scale. Movement and weightlifting have been part of my weekly routine since for many years and is an important part of my journey. Incorporating new habits such as exploring foods that felt right for my body, focusing on macros, having great coaches, and leaning on tools like journaling and self-compassion are now part of building a new routine.

Staying Honest, Staying Real

If there’s one thing I’ve committed to in this journey, it’s honesty—especially with myself. Weight loss is often glorified in our culture, but in reality, it requires a willingness to look at ourselves deeply. Sharing these moments with you through videos has been both empowering and vulnerable, a reminder that no one has it all together all the time.

Here is my most venerable post so far as I share my real body in real time.


This journey is ongoing, and I look forward to sharing more in my upcoming posts and videos. We’ll dive into the practices that are working, how I handle setbacks, and the small wins that make it all worth it. For now, thank you for joining me as I take each step toward a healthier, happier me.
