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.
