Weight Loss Success Story from Mélissa
I’m Mélissa, 20, French, living in Canada, ed recovered. I fell in love with running and real food 4 years ago.
When I arrived on tumblr, I began with a thinspo blog, had a horrible lifestyle and was obsessed with my appearance. But thanks God, I met amazing people running fitblr, healthblr, fitblr, and step by step I understood that being healthy was so much more important than being skinny.
When I beat e.d, I lost 10 kilos, by… Eating more and quite purging/vomiting + exercising regularly. I’m so thankful for the way I’ve come so far, but I miss a little something. I want to be healthier, more active, travel more, and help others.
I love cooking, walking during hours and hours, books, museums, learn languages, travels, my amazing girlfriend and healthy food.
How to lose weight using diet pills ? Throw them in the trash and start healthy eating.
1) Do not drink your calories
Drink water, tea, coffee, whatever you want which is HEALTHY, with no chemicals and is not processed. You want orange juice ? Well, take some oranges and do it yourself.
“but diet coke is healthy, it’s 0 calories”. No. No it is not healthy, this will fuck up your entire body and metabolism. No calories doesn’t mean healthy, a smoothie is healthy.
Between 1.5 and 2.5L of water a day is a good amount to my mind
2) Change step by step.
You can’t change your lifestyle overnight, who can ? Otherwise it will end up the same way our new year’s resolutions usually end up : forgotten. Honestly, if you want to replace your Friday’s pizza with a salad, you gonna freak out and be frustrated. Advice : eat half of the yummy weekly pizza and the other half will be a yummy salad.
Try to replace the things instead of erasing them. If you are used to eating between meals and know that if you stop you’ll binge at the end of the day, why not PLAN snacks between your meals ? A hand of nuts with fruit, and a tea for example.
3) Exercise
They say exercise is 30% of a weight loss journey, because you cannot out exercise a bad diet. You don’t need to spend 3hours at the gym every day to get results, you don’t even have to pay for a membership to get results.
I started with videos of Cassey Ho 3 times a week. Each of my training sessions lasted between 20 and 30 minutes. Then, I started to train longer and harder by doing strength training and I started running.
The most important thing to remember is to stay active : choose a walk instead of the bus, take the stairs, do 30 squats before your shower… Your 1h workouts are important, but what you are doing the other 23h of the day are super important.
I hated sport at the beginning because I used to do it only at school and I couldn’t chose the sport I wanted to practice, I wasn’t comfortable to run or play any games in front of everyone, but when I started on my own, I became addicted to the feeling, to the burn (yeah, it’s gonna burn, but in a good way), and my health improved significantly. Choose a sport you love, it can be swimming, biking, hiking, dancing, walking, skating, just move !
