You are stronger than you think.
I started Weigh Ankor in 2014 as a private blog where I could track all the things I was eating because I wanted more than anything to be skinny so people would like me and I could have a “normal” life.
Over the last few years, I’ve been through a lot. Demanding jobs I allowed to take over my life, my father’s passing, and just trying to people please in general.
In 2018, I thought I was making headway, I thought I was going to make it. But after three months and losing 50 pounds, I lost my job and ended a 20-year friendship that was draining me.
It took five years to get through my father’s passing, with two of those having to work through losing a close friend. But finally in 2020, after being locked in my house for two months during a pandemic, I decided to finally get my shit together.
I had always watched the CrossFit documentaries and loved the way the female athletes were so incredibly strong. I wanted to look like that but wasn’t sure I would ever be able to.
I started researching CrossFit boxes close to me and ended up finding a gym and a group of people that cheered me on through the entire journey. I’ve hired a nutritionist that helps me determine my macros, and I really started to focus on how I fuel my body.
I’ve realized that you have to shift your entire mindset, lifestyle, and routine. It’s not just a workout thing or a nutrition thing. It’s a life thing.

Take photos along your journey, you won’t regret it.
I used to be afraid of sharing photos because I was living it day to day. I didn’t want to be judged and I thought a hoodie would hide how big I am… it doesn’t. But now that I’m in the maintenance zone, it feels really awesome to look back and see how far I’ve come.

I'm planning a year dedicated to enhancing every aspect of my life, step by step, month by month.

My mission is to inspire and support everyone in their journey to a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling existence. In the coming year, I want to embrace the Level-10 Life concept. This approach is all about breaking down our lives into different categories and focusing on each one intensively for a month.
