It seems as though more and more people are getting the memo about living their best life.
And not living for someone else or what they see or think is their best life, but living life for them.
It’s important to do things on your own terms and not to impress anybody because you’ll be happier.
That’s why we have to honor Nene, better known as @nenebankz on Instagram.
She is a true inspiration to everyone that follows her. She has lost over 190 pounds and continues to lose weight while staying to herself. And just like with real weight loss, it’s has taken time, but she’s remained on a mission and that mission has proven successful.
We have received a number of emails suggesting we feature Nene, simply because of who she is. But we’ll let her explain in her own words.
This is what she wrote in an Instagram post:
“I was 393+ pounds and barely 5’4. I was just uncomfortably big! I remember thinking how did I get this way? who am I? I didn’t even recognize myself anymore. I even begin to believe that I would stay that way forever because the idea of losing 150 +pounds seemed way past impossible! One day it finally hit me! I was just tired! Diet after diet. Every Monday I was starting over again with no results and no consistency. I was Fed Up! I was a beautiful soul with a love for fashion and music. I HAD DREAMS! I wanted to look like the girl I felt like on the inside. I knew I needed to be healthy for my children. I could barely play with them let alone take them outside for outdoor activities.”
