MY WEiGHT LOSS JOURNEY FOR THiS MOM OF 8 (part 1) 🥰😉

I really have been struggling over the last couple years with my weight because of my hormones going through menopause and no matter what I do whether I eat good or exercise the weight just comes on like you absolutely cannot control it.
And I am a very active person and I just feel like I woke up and 45 pounds heavier. I didn’t notice it even though I am on social media and I see myself in the videos. I really wasn’t noticing that I was putting on a lot of weight, but the one thing I did notice was I just wasn’t feeling good. I was having a lot of digestive issues and I went to several doctors tried different. Diets tried changing my foods that I eat doing no processed all whole Whole Foods and nothing would help.
I started by exercising and then doing a couple juice cleanses which really did help and now that me and my husband have found this Octavia. It actually seems to be helping me a lot actually, I’m not waking up with a bloated stomach, and I’m not sick to my stomach. Literally for the last year and a half. I’ve woke up every single morning with my stomach bloated, feeling full, and sick to my stomach.
I have officially lost over 15 pounds today and I’m super excited to see how the future holds for my continued weight loss journey. I have been exercising but not faithfully because I feel like I all I do is travel so now that I’m home and we have so many wonderful things happening that I really just wanna be in shape and start to feel better which is my main reason that I’m doing this.
My husband is super excited about this diet. He says he feels like he’s lost more. We did our first weigh in. I’m telling you getting older takes a toll on you if you’re not in shape and taking care of yourself, but I used to lift all the time and I just got really burnt out with it like I said in the video a couple times and so I just stopped doing it which I know isn’t the best thing but I just was overwhelmed with life.
I was nervous with you, but I want to be transparent and just let you know how I’m feeling and if there’s other people that are struggling the same way hopefully I can be an encouragement to you. Let you know that you’re not alone that we all are struggling and maybe you don’t see me struggling on my struggles and we all just are tired of life and wanted to just stay in bed all day. And I get that way often.

Congratulations on 2 pounds. I've been on a diet to loose, I have lost 164 pounds so far. I'm a diabetic and went through a depression state, since I've got a long way to go so I can get surgery on both my knees. If I can do it, I have faith in you that you can do it.

Great job. I'm diabetic and for years have kept my A1c between 5.0 to 5.2. Now after years it's sky high and I'm so frustrated. So, now I'm going to try exercising more, but motivation is hard to find.

Heather You can do this. I weighed 198 and said I’m done and started eating healthy,walking every day. I cut sugar out for awhile, everything s/f. One tip I would give is don’t eat after 4 or 5. And you gotta go to bed little hungry. lol. The weight will fall off I know weigh 145. Took me few months but I never felt better. I love food. lol. Now’s the hard part, keeping it off. Good luck to ya

Heather -- I feel the same way. Social media definitely has a way of swallowing you up .. and I've noticed that one of the first things I do when I wake up is to check my KZfaq notifications; and before I know it, I've been into it for an hour. For me personally, one of the most important things in my life is my faith, and I feel like I should be giving that my first attention in the morning .. so that's what I've been trying to do, prioritize my time and those things of importance for me to begin each day in the right direction. I'm also going to start riding my exercise bike again every day. Now that the Spring is here and the weather is warming, my husband and I usually go hiking on the weekend, which is one of our favorite things to do. We also add in bird watching on our hikes, which we love. I think it's a good thing to exercise and stay fit, but it's also important to incorporate the things that you like to do - walking, hiking, swimming - whatever it is that you enjoy and doesn't make your exercising feel like a drudgery instead of enjoyment.

You can do this I just turned 70 and last year was one of my heaviest. I weighed 220 pounds and I become a type one diabetic. I changedI’my eating habits And I was 60 pounds I am now 160 which is the lowest I’ve been in 40 years I was overweight my whole life and it is a struggle, but it takes commitment and once you make up your mind, you can do it You are a strong woman and you’ve got this

Heather you can do this! I'm 70 and a half! (Yes l count that half!) Diabetes runs in my family. I made up my mind that l was going to loose this weight. I totally vote for weight watchers diet plans. Skip juice!!!! That's full of sugar! Instead eat the fruits! Think "protein and produce!" I had my check up last week and my labs were phenomenal and weight was down. Don't weigh every day. Go for twice a week. You've got this!

If you have a "Y" in your town/area. Swimming, water aerobics, even walking in the pool helps. Stay hydrated during this time. When drinking coffee, substitute local honey for sugar(good for allergies), oat milk/creamer for regular creamer(Chobani will send you coupons every 30 days, you have to put it on the calendar and call each month). Watching your saturated fats/cholesterol can help at any age! Perhaps you have become lactose intolerant? Try Schiff Digestive Advantage Probiotic + Lactose Support(in our area CVS carries). Try not eating anything after dinner/dessert, so your body can digest. Do not lay down or sit back on the couch or recliner for 3 hours after you eat. You can do it, and it's not quanity lost, even a pound lost is great, that's 4 sticks of butter(imagine that on a plate)! 😊❤

I just want to say momma bell, you’re beautiful! I know how upsetting it can be to gain weight, and how much of a toll it can be. I was in a collision, and got hypothyroidism, and have gained 100 pounds. It’s not even about being skinny, it’s about the struggle daily just to move your body. Don’t worry about the number on the scale as much on how you feel.

I try to watch all of your videos. (Not a huge TV watcher) but these and a few other just calm me at night. I have a good job with a very large bank for over 21 yrs ) This is just one that touched my heart again by you exposing YOU and this whole “circle” of life and the last few years since social media. I remember you on Dad something pod cast awhile back and he embraced you not like he does to the other social media families pod cast and not exposing your kids for the money. You are telling your true life story about how children in this world need good homes and it possible. Thank you for being you ! Always stay strong. You and your family have been such a blessing to SO many people just by you sharing your family’s experiences! And I thank you very much. God bless.

Heather you are stunning and certainly don't look your age. You are right that it's not only about your weight it's your comfort that matters.

Hey Heather, as a member of the Perimenopause community 😂and weight gain board. I switched over to a food pairing which is a protein, fiber and complex carb style of eating and I feel like a brand new person! My sugar cravings went away, I no longer have most of the hormonal symptoms I was dealing with and I’m actually sleeping 😮 I aim for 25-30 grams of protein with each meal but of course everyone is different and I also aim for my fiber intake to be 25G per day including soluble fiber (which is what we need for hormonal reasons) I ditched “Added Sugars” and Refined Carbs Game changer so far for these hormones

Kombucha is a better choice & lots of benefits. Please keep us informed of your health journey it's helpful I'm sure for many of us here. 😊

I feel ya, Heather. I had my only baby at 47. I weighed 128 when I got pregnant and gained 65 pounds and only lost 45, hence; never lost the last 20 and more crept on now 150. I turn 62 in June, and eating only 12pm to 6pm and it helps not to eat after dinner. For me I eat meat and veggies and down a few pounds, so gotta start on the weights, and all this exercise is boring but I gotta do it.

Heather, I’m 30 yrs old. I have 6 children ages 11y,8,6y,3y,1.5y & 2mo. My normal weight is 110 lb (I use to go to the gym 2x daily for fun)…after my 6yr was born, I was on my way back down to my normal weight again and when he was 2 months old I was 120…THEN one night I found my best friend (my dad) dead on the floor in rigormortis. It stopped my whole life and I didn’t want to do ANYTHING. There was NO POINT. And within 2 years I went from 120 to 182! Here it is 6 years in and I’m still struggling to do anything with my life. But I just started the gym.. I pray I can atleast get to 130 but I’d love to be 125 or 120. I use to model for playboy and everything and it’s so weird to go from never worrying about if I could fit into something or how I looked at the beach next to a 20yr blonde, to feeling like I’m in a dream and I’m not in my own body. It’s so odd. But you’re not alone and hey GUESS WHAT ELSS?! You’re in your 50s and already down what 20+ pounds?!! And I’m 30 and haven’t lost a drop LOL. So feel good momma! You deserve it! ❤
