    Weight loss stories: How I Lost 100 Pounds

    Published: Apr 8, 2016 · Updated: Feb 25, 2023 by Natalie · 15 Comments

    Read on to discover my weight loss story of how I lost 100 pounds with healthy eating and simple lifestyle changes.

    How I Lost 100+ Pounds With Healthy Eating

    For most of my life, I struggled with my weight. I tried every fad diet and exercise program out there, but nothing seemed to stick. After my child was born, my weight gain only accelerated. My unhealthy eating habits, stressful job, and sedentary lifestyle left me feeling physically sick and unhappy.

    By the summer of 2014, I was at my breaking point. Weighing in at 264 pounds, I started to experience serious health issues, including back pain, knee pain, shortness of breath, and high blood pressure. I felt depressed and unhappy. I knew I needed to make a change but I didn't know where to start.

    The change

    I didn't want to go on another temporary diet or weight loss program. I wanted a permanent change in my lifestyle. I wanted to live a healthy and happy life, so I started learning about healthy food and experimenting with healing spices. I cut out all processed meat, unhealthy refined sugars, and store-bought food.

    Instead, I focused on eating real food – fresh fruits, vegetables, and other nutritious foods. It was a drastic change, but I knew it was the only way to regain control of my life.

    In addition to changing my diet, I also started walking, doing yoga, and leading a more active lifestyle. It wasn't easy at first, but I pushed through the pain and fatigue. After six months, I started to feel amazing. I had more energy, and I began losing weight.

    The result

    Over the course of a year and a half, I lost over 110 pounds. But for me, the biggest accomplishment was my complete lifestyle change. I am a healthier and happier person today. Healthy eating is not just a short-term diet; it's a lifestyle. I eat natural, fresh food that nourishes my body and gives me energy. I eat in moderation and mindfully, enjoying every bite.

    The "side effect" of my healthy lifestyle was weight loss and feeling better overall. People started to take notice and asked me how I managed to improve my life so drastically. I decided to start a blog to share my story and everything I learned along the way. It wasn't just another food blog with recipes; I shared my experience, tips, and guidelines on how to eat healthy and feel awesome.

    Today, I feel like a different person. I have more confidence and energy, and I am grateful for the healthy body I have. It wasn't easy to get here, but it was worth it.

    With healthy eating and few simple lifestyle changes, I transforemed my life - from unhealthy and depressed to healthy and happy. With healthy food and eating right I lost 110 pounds and kept it off. Here's my story. #weightloss #weightlossstory #weightlosstransformation #healthy #healthyeats #healthylife #healthylifestyle #healthyfood #wellness #motivation #fit | natalieshealth.com

    Eating healthily involves consuming fresh, natural foods that are nutritionally dense and nourish your body, providing the energy it needs. It also entails eating foods that cleanse and protect the body. Healthy eating is also about eating mindfully and with intention, in moderation.

    If you're struggling with your weight and overall health, know that it is possible to make a change. Start small, make gradual changes, and focus on progress, not perfection. With healthy eating and a more active lifestyle, you can transform your life and become the best version of yourself.
