I went from about 130 lbs. or more (thicker than a snicker) to now about 115 lbs. (tiny as hell). My intentions for changing my eating habits were for holistic health, mind, body, and spirit, not for weight loss but I knew there was a strong possibility. Not too long after changing my eating habits I also changed in many other areas of my life. I stopped weight lifting and solely focused on yoga for almost a year. Long story, short… My weight “re-gain” journey has just began. I have a trainer and also supplements supporting my goals. I’m excited to get back to my desired weight, only difference between now and then is that my body now has zero dead weight, zero heavy fats. I’m restarting, fresh! Going from completely toned to building muscle & healthy fats. I respect my journey and I’m ready to transform! Watch and also join me in gaining some solid muscle.
