Listen "How Weight Loss Transformed Our Lives: From Negativity to Intentional Living"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Transform Your Life, Teresa and Tonya reflect on how their lives have changed—mentally, emotionally, and physically—through their weight loss journey. They share how growing up in toxic households shaped their early mindset, leading to self-neglect, negative thinking, and the habit of blaming others. At the time, they were simply going through the motions of life, without truly living.They open up about the power of mindset and how thoughts fuel feelings and actions. They describe their pre-surgery routines—ignoring hunger cues, overeating in secret, avoiding movement, and placing themselves last. Now, their lives are centered around intentional self-care, walking, connecting with loved ones, and finding daily joy. They explain how even small changes in movement and thinking helped them regain control of their health and happiness. Most importantly, they recognized that they had to change—not their circumstances or the people around them.Key Topics Covered:Breaking cycles of negativity and reclaiming your mindsetWhat self-care looked like before vs. after weight lossLearning to recognize hunger cues and eat in moderationHow movement evolved from pain to empowermentLetting go of blame and owning your transformationWhy intentional living matters more than perfectionTune in to hear how Teresa and Tonya redefined their lives—and how you can too—one thought, one step, and one choice at a time.Devotion Protein Powder - Use TONYA or Teresa to save on your orderAmerican Dream Nut Butter - Use code TONYA10 or TransformingTeresaMarie to save on your order.Follow Transform Your Life Podcast on Instagram @transformyourlifepodcastFollow Tonya on Instagram @takingmylifebackat42Follow Teresa on Instagram @transformingteresamarie and Tiktok @transformingteresamarieFollow Mannie on Instagram @making_mannie and Tiktok @making_mannie📲 Follow & Connect: Follow Transform Your Life Podcast on Instagram: @transformyourlifepodcastFollow Tonya: @takingmylifebackat42Follow Teresa: @transformingteresamarie | TikTok: @transformingteresamarie
