53kg down, and this is part of the reality too and I’m okay with it, because it was never about aesthetics and always about health.

I used to dread full-length photos.

I’d angle myself, hide behind someone, crop the picture or simply avoid the camera altogether because I felt so self-conscious and embarrassed by what I saw.

Now, 53kg lighter, I sometimes look at these photos and hardly recognise myself.

Not just because my body has changed, but because the woman standing in front of the camera has changed too. She is stronger, healthier and no longer trying to make herself smaller or disappear.

It has taken time, consistency and a lot of uncomfortable honesty to get here.

And for once, I’m not hiding from the photo. I’m proud to be in it.
