From Insecurity to Strength🤲🏾

Wassup family. Looking back at my first proper check-in photos, I can't help but feel overwhelmed by how far we’ve come. It's been a hell of a journey, filled with insecurities and constant comparisons to my peers, all in the hopes of feeling "normal" again.

I took a rather unconventional route by diving into bodybuilding, and let me tell you, it hasn't been easy. For five years, I pushed myself through vigorous training, unknowingly putting constant strain on my back. Little did I know that I was actually fixing it, until three years in when I discovered a 41-degree curvature. It's truly a testament to the miraculous work of a merciful God.

Throughout this journey, I've had the privilege of learning from incredible men and women who have imparted their wisdom and knowledge onto me. I've absorbed everything they've taught me and poured my heart and soul into my training. Every day, I try my best to share this journey with all of you, and from now on, I'll make it even more explanatory.

I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to each and every one of you who has been following my progress. Your support means the world to me, and I can't thank you enough for being a part of this incredible journey. While I didn't choose the path of medicine to heal myself, I hope that my practice can at least offer some help and aid to you in your own personal journey.

Remember, we all have our unique paths to follow, and sometimes the road less traveled can lead to the most extraordinary transformations.🐺❤️

Today, I want to share my scoliosis journey with all of you. I am at a loss for words as I write this, tears streaming down my face. This is my testimony. At the age of 18, I was told that I had scoliosis and would require four major surgeries to regain a sense of normalcy. However, the risks involved meant that I could potentially end up in a wheelchair or even paralyzed from my spine. The thought of it terrified me, and I didn't want to go through with it. The doctors warned me that I would be in pain for the rest of my life or become a hunchback.

Taking a leap of faith, I decided to embark on a bodybuilding journey to correct my spine. Through countless training programs and the unwavering support of incredible individuals, I began my quest. Yes, there were times when the pain was unbearable, but the doctors soon realized that the training I put my body through was actually helping. If I skipped a week of training, the pain would return, so we kept pushing forward.

Just this week, I went for an X-ray appointment, and what I discovered left me in awe of the power of faith and determination. GOD IS TRULY AMAZING. The doctors couldn't believe it, and neither could I or my mom. I am overcome with emotion. My curvature has gone from 67 to 52 to an astounding 20 degrees today. It has taken me five years of giving everything I have, but the results are beyond anything I could have imagined.

I am overflowing with gratitude for each and every one of you who encouraged me to keep going. Your support means the world to me, and I love you all so much. I can't even begin to describe how I'm feeling right now, but one thing is for certain: I am in complete shock.

This post is filled with sentimentality because it represents the triumph of the human spirit, the power of perseverance, and the incredible impact that love and support can have on someone's life. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for being a part of my journey. Together, we have defied the odds, and I am forever grateful.

Sometimes you have to get uncomfortable to get what you want.

Weight gain is NOT the problem. It's merely a SYMPTOM of something else going on. This may be lack of worthiness, trauma, bad relationships with foods, insecurities, lack of mindfulness.

Our bodies can do so many amazing things when you start to work for it and not against it.
