The person that I'm very grateful for, for his encouragement and support in helping me to achieve my goal, is none other than my husband. Back to this time, 2 years ago, after giving birth, I found myself gaining more than 10 kilos, making me overweight and feeling uncomfortable with my reflection in the mirror. That was the time my husband stepped in with unwavering support. He suggested I join the Zumba club to shed some extra weight. At first, I was hesitant because juggling between work and family responsibilities was daunting for me. I wasn't sure if I could manage it, but he reassured me that he could share household work and take care of our baby so that I could carve out some time for exercise. With his encouragement, I embarked on my weight loss journey. There were bumps in the road, some days I felt discouraged because I couldn't see any visible change in my body despite my efforts, but he was always there to lift my spirits up and motivate me to stay committed. After 6 months, I finally lost six kilos, which was a big success for me. My success was attributed to my husband's support. I will say that without his support and encouragement, I couldn't have achieved my goal.
