.Everyone has their story. Mine included me living in the closet for most of my life. It was a very dark place of denial, refusal, and uncertainty. It was a constant battle of questioning why I was the way I was and why was I not like “everyone else?” It was mentally and physically exhausted trying to be someone I wasn’t and it wasn’t until I came back from my first international trip to the Philippines, where I saw how people can live the most simplest of lives and be happy. I sat on that 13+ hour flight going home looking back at my life asking myself not what I was asking before, but “why am I trying this hard to be happy?” It wasn’t until then that I finally accepted who I was. I no longer felt ashamed, embarrassed, or fearful. It was like an instant weight was lifted from my spirit that I could actually look in the mirror and say to myself, “I am gay.” I am now living my best life and have pushed myself to do things that I’ve never thought I’d be able to do. I’m the happiest I’ve ever been and I’m so thankful, to myself, for coming out. Fortunately my coming out to family and friends ended positively, as I received nothing but love. I’m only 2 years out but I’ve allowed myself to live the honest life that I’ve always wanted for myself. So the only words I have left if you’ve read this much is to be brave and love yourself enough to live your best life. Coming out has to be on your terms and your terms only. You will know when you’re ready and just know that when you do, it will be better on the other side!

Took advantage of my natural #wavyhair and became #clarkkent #superman #supermancostume for #halloween this year. I took a stroll into @halloween.city and found this as the last one available. It was #meanttobe I actually had these glasses from long time ago which the #costume was missing so I ended up getting a discount as well. Hope y’all had a #super #halloween off to Manang’s #halloweenparty 💙❤️💛. . . . . #gayman #gayself #gaysefie #selfie #instagood #instagay #instamoment #instapic #instagram #alterego #alternateself #downlow #onthedl #superhero #dressupparty #costumeparty #costumepartyfun #halloweencostume

#ketotransformation #30daytransformation After 30 days, the results are in... Lost 15.8 libbies but more importantly, 4% body fat therefore increasing my muscle mass = leaner body, my overall goal. I let myself go and I knew it too. I was cognitive of the choices I made but it took me knowing I was damn near 200 pounds to scare my ass like: “Wake it up Bitch!!!” “How far are you gonna let yourself go!” I knew the way I was eating was the culprit and being a #registerednurse I felt like such a #hypocrite . So I’m thankful that I started loving myself again. Starting this #ketolifestyle has changed me changed me for the better. Having history of doing the #whole30challenge twice, I’m experienced with letting go of sugar. But THIS way of eating I feel is far more #sustainable . Who would have thought that living mostly off fats would make me feel so amazing. I feel more energetic because I’m not crashing with naps after work, I feel more focused and see a real difference in the way I feel about myself. I feel like I’m taking care of myself and that is my continued goal. I’ve got my first month down and the habit is there. Here’s to my continued progress in taking care of myself and doing what I feel is right for me! Again I want to thank @ketoguido for inspiring me and @keto.connect for assisting me on my #healthjourney ❤️🧡💛💚💜

Day 1 of my #ketolife and I drank #buttercoffee for the first time and it wasn’t bad. Gave me the energy to go until noon time without craving. Got home and started my first batch of #ketobread I’ve been researching the past 2 weeks about this #lifestyle and noticed it’s similar to a #paleolifestyle but with minor adjustment in proportions, so I knew I could do it having done the #whole30 twice already. . Since coming back from Europe and enjoying myself out there, I just kept enjoying (eating all my favorite #neverland foods 😄) to the point that I lost the spark that made me want to get healthier prior to the trip. I’m noticing again my lack of energy, clothes aren’t fitting anymore, and I just felt like a slob. I was consciously making poor diet decisions and I got to the point of not wanting to live that way any longer. . So today is the day I turn it all around, RE-remind myself that I love myself too much to not be that self-destructive. I’m so happy today is the day that I actually feel just a little bit better about myself. Big THANK YOU to @keto.connect and @ketoguido for inspiration and giving me the tools to return to my #healthjourney 🤗 . . . . . #ketotransformation #ketoweightloss #ketolife #ketorecipes #healthgoals #fitnessmotivation #fitnessjourney #startofsomethingnew #ilovemyself #loveyourself #yolo #liveyourbestlife
