Trainer
Growing up as a fat kid was definitely hard on me as a child. I remember being so frustrated because clothes as simple as a pair of jeans didn’t look the same on me as it did on every other kid in school... I felt like an outcast. My confidence became so low that it prevented me from doing things I loved like playing soccer. I joined a team thinking I would meet people who I could play and enjoy the game with but all I found were kids who hated me because of how I looked. They never even gave me a chance. “Porky”, “fat ass”, “piggy”, “fatty” were all names I would hear during practice. I slowly started to hate the game I once loved. I decided I would do absolutely anything to lose the weight so I could look “normal” in other people’s eyes.
*Trigger warning*
I began to fall into bad eating habits such as many people do when trying to lose weight fast. It got so bad at one point I decided to water fast for 30 days, not knowing I was basically killing my self. I lost so much weight extremely fast but in my mind I looked exactly the same. This was also where I saw food as a bad thing. I eventually gained the weight back after I began to eat again and decided to try other diets that were recommended such as keto, intermittent fasting, and barely eating throughout the day. Nothing seemed to truly work because it was too hard and unsustainable.
I was on the verge of giving up because losing weight just started to feel like a distant dream for me. But my whole life started to shift once I found calorie deficits. I was able to lose 40Lbs in the first 6 months but this time not just in fat, I began to develop muscle I never thought I would be able to get. I discovered that weight loss is possible for me and it doesn’t have to be as hard as most people make it seem. So I decided to begin my journey as an online trainer/social media influencer to reach and help people who are on the verge of giving up on themselves like I almost did once. After a couple years of being in the Fitness field, I realized that the reason other personal trainers recommend these insane diets and crazy hard workouts is because most of them have never been in the position of being overweight. They never had to go through those late night binges because they didn’t starve themselves to lose weight like I did. Nor did they have the experience of covering up in the summer because they were so embarrassed of how they look no matter how hot it was outside.
This Is why I created EternalMob, to change the fitness industry so it’s actually designed to help people who struggled with weight from someone who has struggled as well.
