First of all, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to Rhonda and her team. You guys have truly changed millions of lives. Yay!

I often come here to read The Secret stories for inspiration, and now it’s my turn to inspire anyone out there struggling with weight problems.

I have been overweight since I was a little girl, which made me very insecure as I grew up. I discovered The Secret when I was 17 and was immediately drawn to it. I talked to everyone about it, but many thought I was out of touch. I believed in the law of attraction but didn’t apply it much.

I met an amazing guy when I was 18 and fell deeply in love with him. When I first met him, I weighed 140 kg, and my weight shot up to 207 kg in just three years. Doctors warned me that if I didn’t change my lifestyle, I wouldn’t live to see my 40s. I ignored their advice, relying on the law of attraction, believing I could do anything without really applying it.

One of my biggest fears was losing the guy I loved, but I hardly ever showed my appreciation for him. As expected, we broke up after four years together. He wanted to join the army, and I could not bear the thought of waiting for him to return in three years. I always believed we were soul mates until I found out he had a new girlfriend, which crushed me. That’s when I decided to put myself first and take control of my own happiness.

I started being grateful for the little things, even though I wasn’t fit and couldn’t walk for 5 minutes without being exhausted. I thanked my legs for allowing me to walk and my arms for enabling me to hug my loved ones. Little things like that made a big difference. I distanced myself from people who weren’t good for me and surrounded myself with those who loved and supported me. I bought books like The Magic, “You Can Heal Your Life” by Louise Hay, and “The Law of Attraction” by Esther and Jerry Hicks. I watched The Secret countless times; it’s so good for the soul.

Now I have lost a total of 40 kgs without dieting, and my family and friends are amazed by my transformation. I receive compliments on how good I look, and I feel phenomenal. My ex and I are still close; he says I’m his best friend, and I feel the same way about him. He’s still with his girlfriend, and I’m genuinely happy for them. He told me last night that whoever I end up with will be a lucky person, which was a sweet moment. I can’t wait to update all of you with that story. I have 27 kgs to lose to reach my goal weight, and I believe I can achieve it by mid-next year, just before my sister and I leave for America for 2 months. I’m so excited!

Life is just phenomenal, and I’m loving every moment of it!
