  • My Path From a Two-Time Plus-Size Bride to a Happy and Healthy Weight! How I Did It!

    Send us a Text Message.

    Ever wondered how childhood trauma and cultural pressures can shape a lifetime of weight struggles? Join me as I share my deeply personal journey from being a chubby kid bullied in school to navigating the high expectations of body image in an Italian and German household. I'll recount the emotional toll of high school teasing and how these early experiences influenced my self-perception. This episode uncovers the emotional and psychological battles that have been a constant in my fight for a healthier lifestyle.

    From the joy of marriage to the challenges of divorce, my story continues through the highs and lows of adult life. Imagine finding a plus-size wedding dress in the late nineties when body positivity was barely acknowledged. As I grappled with unhealthy eating habits, the strain of an unfit relationship, and the hurdles of single motherhood, I found myself at a crossroads. Hear about the small victories, the setbacks, and the evolving methods that helped me lose and maintain weight, including the controversial decision to undergo bariatric surgery.

    Fast forward to today, where modern tools like Manjaro and Ozempic have become essential in my weight maintenance arsenal. I'll discuss practical tips on balancing protein intake, the benefits of a supportive community, and the science behind these medications. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of the small, daily decisions that lead to long-term success and a celebration of resilience in the face of ongoing challenges. Tune in for an honest, unfiltered look at the realities of weight management and the importance of embracing every tool available without shame.
