I haven’t posted much about my journey on here..

I haven’t posted much about my journey on here... and i don’t even know where to start. I’ve thought about this caption forever but I’m just gonna type whatever comes out.
I hated my life for awhile. I hated myself. It breaks my heart to look at myself a year ago, two years ago; and see what I see now. How easily social media can cover up misery... how I can cover up my own misery from myself and everyone around me. I’m shocked. The very last picture is not even me at my heaviest but I remember seeing that photo for the first time like it was yesterday. I had no idea who was staring back at me. I saw the depression in my eyes. It was screaming at me but I still kept it to myself and wouldn’t tell anyone anything was wrong.
Back in December I turned a corner and never looked back. I tasted happiness again - pure, raw, genuine happiness. The Ashley I had always dreamed of being. Not just in fitness, but my heart, my mind, the way I loved others, poured into my relationships, took care of myself, and showed up to life every day like I hadn’t done the last few years. I cry every time I think about how far I’ve come, the life I’ve built, the people I’ve surrounded myself with... I (literally) BUILT the girl in these photos.
This year I have done so much. But all I want to share right now is that I’ve officially lost 35 pounds!!! I’m more proud of the PRs I’ve hit in the gym haha but WOW 35 pounds?! I can’t even believe it’s real.
s/o to my trainer @ariguezfit who helped me become someone I am proud of. Someone I feel is worthy to share with the world. Our talks, our accountability, & our respect are unmatched. You are a goddess and a light in this world and I am endlessly grateful for your support and motivation.
My family, all my friends, gah damn. Thanks for showing me so many reasons to love life. I never thought I was going to top 2017 as the happiest year of my life but 2021 is already there.
Not sure if I’m making sense anymore at this point but I just wrote from the heart. I hope, if you know me, if I haven’t seen you in awhile, I’m so excited for you to know this Ashley.
All I can say is, wow. I did THAT. And we’re just getting started.
