Male Female

The person that I'm very grateful for, for his encouragement and support, and helping me achieve my goal, is none other than my husband. It was about 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. It was then my husband stepped in with unwavering support. He suggested I join a Zumba club to shed some extra weight. I was hesitant at first, you know, because juggling between work and family responsibilities was daunting, and I wasn't sure if I could manage it, but he reassured me that he could share housework and take care of our baby so that I could carve out time for exercise. With his encouragement, I embarked on the weight loss journey. Although there were bumps in the road, there were days I felt discouraged because I couldn't see any visible change in my body despite my efforts. He was still there giving me support, lifting my spirits up, and motivating me to stay committed. The hard work paid off after 6 months. I lost 10 kilos. That was a big success for me. Without his encouragement and support, I couldn't have achieved my goal.
