Transformation of the Day: Zia lost 37 pounds. Putting everything and everyone before herself and dealing with toxic relationships led to an unhealthy lifestyle and weight gain. For the past year, she’s put in the work and learned the power of self love. Check out her journey.
I found my analyzing this before photo and trying to understand howย I got there at such a young age. A lot of things took place, including toxicย friendships, toxic relationships, and putting everything and everyone before my own wants and needs. On this very day last year (3/26), I made a massive lifestyleย change. No shakes, no waist trainers or whateva… lol. My journey consisted of hardย work, tears and SWEAT!
What inspired you to keep going when you wanted to give up?
I used unfortunate situations as inspiration to make for better ones. I constantly keptย myself motivated by imagining how confident I would feel in the end. I also focused on my desire toย better my health.
How did you change your eating habits?
I limited my carb intake, ate more vegetables and drank TONS ofย water. I was addicted to sweets, so I found healthy options with a similarย taste. I also used my meal prep containers to help me control theย portions I was consuming.
What did your workout routine look like?
Before I started my journey, going up a flight of stairs or even walking made me feel likeย gravity had won. I overcame it all and started to workout 3-4 days aย week doing pure cardio.
What was your starting weight? What is your current weight?
My starting weight was 182 pounds and my current weight now is 145 pounds. My height isย 5โ3″.
What is the biggest lesson youโve learned so far?
The BIGGEST lesson Iโve learned is that if you truly want something youย must diligently work hard for it. The finish line gets closer asย each day passes. Use your hurt and pain as the fuel you need to transform into the bestย version of yourself.
The best love is selfย love, so go find it! I promise you won’t regret it. Start now!
