My Weightloss Journey

A little bit about me…

My name is Matti, and I’m 20 years old. I am a full time Preschool teacher. My page is all about my weight loss journey. I love helping others achieve their goals to be happy and healthy IN their own body!

What Made Me Start My Journey?

I have always been a “bigger” girl. ALWAYS. Until I was in 8th grade. I was 160 pounds, while I was in competitive cheerleading as well as taking tumbling classes. Now I wasn’t “fit” by any means. But I was smaller than what I was used to be.
FAST FORD— to 10th grade my parents put me on the Depo birth control shot, and after 6 months being on the shot I around 230 pounds. I was the biggest girl in all my classes. I started having anxiety, out of breath all the time, And I just started not feeling pretty at all.
At 18 years old, I moved into my own apartment with my friend. Just in the ONE YEAR of living there I got to my highest weight of 251, and that’s when I knew…… SOMETHING HAS GOT TO CHANGE!!!👏🏻👏🏻 My anxiety was CONSTANTLY. My clothes did not fit AT ALL. I had to buy all new clothes. As well as being so depressed that I was buying sizes 2x-3x shirts, size 18 pants. I never wanted this for myself. I hated going anywhere because I felt people would look down on me for being so over weight. I was so disappointed in myself..

What Did I Do About It?

July 2021 I started a diet called OMAD. It’s a form of Intermittent Fasting. So I fast all day, and only eat one meal. When I tell you this works.. I mean IT WORKS. And it’s sooo fast as well!! I lost 65 pounds in just 6 months. I stayed CONSISTENT on OMAD. It was so easy for me because seeing the numbers in the scale go down every week motivated me soo much. After about two months I could already notice my clothes fitting loose. After 4 months my pants were too big on me. My anxiety is gone completely. I can walk/run far distances without getting so out of breath. My confidence has sky rocketed. All the people that I felt “looked down on me” whenever I was bigger, are now all messaging me asking how I lost my weight. And it’s just soo encouraging. NEVER in a million years did I EVER THINK that ANYONE would ever ask me for weight loss tips and it just feels soo amazing to be able to help others and share MY story. I used to never ever drink water. I would literally GAG drinking it. LIKE SERIOUSLY…. Now I drink a gallon of water EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. I love it. My skin has cleared up tremendously. I finally can say now that I LOVE MY BODY!

I can’t wait to help you all love your bodies just like I love mine! Watch my page for all the tips and tricks to help you all loose weight! 2022 is OUR YEAR.
