How do I know that I can help? Because I was once just like you.
A few years ago, I attempted all the diets from Juice cleanses, to The Whole 40, and Keto in an attempt to try and regain control and make things different.
I’d always fail, and would return to chugging Coca-Cola between my meetings and calls- or simply missing meals altogether.
Coffee became my crutch and the more my anxiety levels rose, the less quality sleep I’d have and the more coffee I needed to get through the day.
I remember eating every lunch at my desk, and scoffing it so quickly that I could barely remember what I’d just eaten. I’d feel so unsatisfied that I’d be sneaking junk foods from my desk drawer to secretly munch just to get me through the afternoon.
There were long stretches between socialising because I was too tired to meet up with my girlfriends and to let my hair down.
My body was stiff and sore and my soul ached for more but I was too busy, too stressed, too maxed-out to figure out how to make the time for myself that I needed to focus on my health, diet and lifestyle.
I will never forget sitting in a state of despair barely getting through each day at a time and realising that the days had become weeks, and the weeks had become months, and that this way of living had become my actual LIFE! This was NOT how I wanted my life to be.
