The Food Advice My 13-yo Self Needed to Hear
Channel: Neily on Nutrition
Date: 2021-07-08

Someone recently asked me how I got to where I am...I've written about my story but this is my first video. My love of nutrition started very early in my life. When I think back to being a chunky kid getting teased by my brothers growing up, it was tough. I wasn’t an obese child – I was a ‘big girl. 

Although my mom didn’t have a weight problem, she knew I suffered from the teasing. So we  went on diets together - everything from eggs to grapefruit and in between. I loved her for doing that for me. When I got out of 8th grade my mom told me about a program she heard about and did I want to go? 

She drove me to my FIRST Weight Watchers meeting...

I hope you enjoy my story! I'd love to hear if any of this resonated with you - please leave a comment! 😊
