One of the biggest shifts in my weight loss journey came when I stopped blaming everything around me and started taking accountability for where I was in life. To be fair, life happens. There were some things beyond my control that contributed to where I was at in life. But the reality was this: while not everything was my fault (although most probably was), it was still my responsibility to fix it. No one was forcing me to turn to food to deal with my stress, I did that on my own accord.
For the longest time I would blame external factors and circumstances beyond my control, effectively giving them all of my power. When I stopped pointing the finger at other people/things and started pointing back at myself, that's when things started to change. I realized no one was coming to save me. I was the only one that could lose the weight for me. I was the only one who cold put in the work.
Instead of being all 'woe for me' and focusing on the problems I shifted my focus to looking for solutions instead. That is when I began to take me power back and I finally started to make some progress with my weight. This was a harsh reality/brutal truth that I had to come to terms with but it changed everything for me. I share in hopes that someone else might relate to this and it helps them.
