Wonderful things can happen in our lives if we only stick to a plan all the way to the end, even in the face of obstacles and adversities to reach our goals. The results will not only impress but also inspire those around you.
Katie Write is a 25-year-old from Australia. From her healthy looks and impressive muscular body, many could not tell that only a year earlier Katie struggled to find the energy to do basically anything. Her long work hours made it easy for her to make bad food choices and her diet consisted of all types of junk food, chips, candy, cookies, ice cream and large portions of home cooked meals. Sometimes she would even eat two dinners; a takeout on her way home and a large home cooked meal.
Growing up, she was active and played sports, but was always a bit chubby. Her weight started going up when she went to college and began to drink more alcoholic drinks and stopped paying attention to her diet.
Katie’s new job required her to be on her feet, and by the end of the day, they hurt so much she could barely drive home. That’s when she realized a total lifestyle change was in order.
She began by ditching all unhealthy foods and started cutting down portion sizes drastically. In the first two weeks, she had already dropped 18 pounds! She started exercising 6 days a week and the pounds started to drop even faster.
Seven months after starting her weight loss journey, she had lost a whopping 88 pounds.
She credits her natural weight loss success to changing her eating habits, exercising and developing self-control when it comes to food portions. She still indulges in her favorite foods, but eats just enough to satisfy her cravings.
In less than a year, Katie lost a total of 110 pounds and maintains her newfound trim and stunning figure by eating clean, building muscle, motivating and inspiring others through her YouTube channel and Instagram account.
In an interview to the blog Taylamadestrength, Katie says: ”I think to start a healthy lifestyle you just need to be willing to change and actually want to change for yourself. Gradually work healthy habits into your everyday life, whether it is signing up to a gym, finding a buddy to keep you on track or telling someone what you’re committing to, everything helps. Everyone has their own little tricks and tips but the main piece of advice is to just start! Nothing is going to change if you don’t change yourself.”
