Took 2 Months After Struggling For years
Submitted by: Anonymous
Northern IrelandAll my life I have been the odd one out in my family. Everyone except for me is naturally skinny, and growing up with five older brothers constantly telling me how horrible I looked was really hard. It also didnt help that all of my friends had the perfect figures either. I really did hate myself and sometimes I would sit and cry to myself, just wishing it would all go away!
One day my brother was reading The Secret and when I asked him what it was about, he told me he couldnt explain it and that I would have to read it for myself, so I did, and I can honestly say its the best thing my brother has ever told me to do. From the minute I finished reading it I decided enough was enough; I was no longer going to be consumed by self pity, but I was going to concentrate on the things in my life that brought me joy and happiness.
Every night before I went to sleep, I would imagine myself going into a store and picking up jeans that were two dress sizes smaller than I was. Then every morning when I woke up I would go through in my head all the things in my life I was grateful for.
In only a few weeks, before I even noticed, people were stopping me in the street and telling me how good I was looking; to me this was amazing. Before The Secret I had never felt so good walking down the street. My self-esteem skyrocketed and then everything in my life just started to get better. All in all I lost two stone in two months and now when people tell me how good I look, I reply with a thank you. I always remember to say my own thank you to the universe.
I can honestly say The Secret has changed my life and the lives of many other people I know. Thank you to Rhonda Byrne and all The Secret Team for bringing this amazing gift to the lives of so many. I truly am very grateful. xx
