  • Margo always struggled with her weight, food, and body image. When she started the DDPY Program she didn't believe that she could heal herself mentally and physically, but through the program, the community, and Margo's search for answers, she was able to OWN HER LIFE and OWN her Mindset.
    If Margo's powerful story inspires you or could help someone you know, please share this video.

    Margo, I love that you swear, sometimes it's called for. Years ago I ordered a very expensive version of the DDP discs, God knows what closet they are in. Then I subscribed to the monthly plan. Again, swore I would do it. After watching you, I believe I can. I come from a severely dysfunctional background, never anything but criticize. I am afraid of trying DDP because I din't want the praise and attention. Congratulations on your success.Thank you for being so forthcoming.

      I recently heard someone say that we need to remember, whatever that voice is saying to us, even when it SOUNDS like our own voice, it isn't. Those words come from other people, places, and times in our lives. Don't own what's not yours. Tell that voice to go away because you're busy getting the work done!

      I had MEANT to try that move later on in the day. I hadn't realized it was in the new workout I was doing and I absolutely surprised myself! There was a LOT of screaming, actually, so much so that I think I even freaked the kids out upstairs! LOL (it was totally worth it and the dog totally survived!)

    Congrats. Margo you look good ! Eating disorders are such a pain and I'm glad you overcame yours. I just have to say @2:40 where you balance your bended knees on your elbows and go straight out to a plank....I'm still working on that. It's SO hard to do, but I know when I get there I will be shouting like you. :) Thanks for giving me motivation to be on the mat, Margo.

    • @MargoLee-xl3rw
      @MargoLee-xl3rw Před 6 měsíci +2

      Thank you so much! Eating disorders are tough because you have to eat to live, multiple times a day! It's not something you can avoid, it's something you need to engage with all the time. It's still a struggle sometimes, where I have to remind myself of the growth I've made. I still have to tell the voice to shut up on occassion. I shouted like that because I'd surprised myself! I'd meant to try that later in the day. The last time I'd tried it I'd landed on my face. It just so happened to show up in a workout I hadn't tried but was filming and I caught it on tape! When you get there, make sure to throw in an "f-bomb" for me!

      I accidently surprised myself that morning! I'd planned on giving that a shot LATER that day. Last time I'd tried I landed on my face. I wanted to see how much I'd progressed. And then it showed up, without warning, in a workout I hadn't done before but happened to be filming! Huzzah!

    This was really inspiring. We look very similar, the before pics of a leaner you, the before the weight loss pics- you can tell you had a good strong base and muscle even before the weight loss, and then afterwards. This inspired me knowing that I will look that beautiful again one day. Working on being consistent and not falling into binging

    Congratulations! I needed to hear your message today. Just this morning I accepted that my issues with food are more of an addiction issue than I was willing to admit. I lost 106 pounds over the last two years and gained back 10 in the last two months. I’ve lost four close family members in five years and had something else beyond heartbreaking happen involving my son, so… its more than just food. I need to get my mat back out and try again. You’ve inspired me. Thank you. ❤

    • @MargoLee-xl3rw
      @MargoLee-xl3rw Před 7 měsíci +2

      Thank you! I'm so glad that my story is able to help. So often we get silenced and are unable to find each other for support. You CAN do this. It's not a perfect journey. Some days are better than others. But if you keep taking little steps in the right direction, they add up to big changes. Carve out some time for yourself and leave all that heartbreak on the mat where it belongs. Don't carry it with you!

      Yoga was a pretty foreign world to me too. I grew up an athlete, that's why I always "weighed so much" and was told I was fat. I prefer contact sports to yoga but THIS is a workout I can do whenever, wherever, and even work around injuries. It was a game changer in a LOT of ways!

      It's an amazing freedom, to just be able to live in my body without worrying about what other people think of it. I grew up an athlete. I was strong, but was told women shouldn't BE strong. My muscles weighed a lot so I was told I was fat. I love my strong body and absolutely nobody can convince me there's something wrong with me. Not anymore!

    • @MargoLee-xl3rw
      @MargoLee-xl3rw Před 6 měsíci

      I look forward to my mat time so much. Not just because it feels good physically to get stretched and twisted and pumped like that, but because it's my neutral space where that is the ONLY thing that happens there. None of my earthly worries matter there. Leave the world behind and just focus on the lines my body is making on the mat.Sometimes the voice tries to push it's way in there but I just tell it to shut up, I'm working here! It's incredible.

      Thank you! I really hope my story helps others know they aren't alone out there. Those of us with restrictive eating disorders are often silenced. People seem to believe that anorexia is contagious and so we are isolated from each other. It makes finding others trying to recover impossible. The truth is, anorexia isn't just a teenage girl propblem. It's a real problem that CAN last a lifetime. It can also be recovered from, but not alone and not in silence. I hope the world hears me!
