I've always, always, ALWAYS struggled with my weight. When I first started vlogging about astrology I knew I'd get a bunch of comments about my appearance, so I decided to call my brand "Big Fat Astro" so I could effectively counter that entire line of attack. The truth is, I'm now 30 years old with 3 kids, and I've already wasted the prime of my life being overweight and unable to enjoy physical activities like other people do, feeling bad about the way I look, dreading buying clothes, etc. I've compensated for these insecurities by finding the humor in everything, but living unhealthily is no longer very funny. It's really hard for me to stick to things in my life, so sticking to diets or exercise plans has been extremely difficult, even once I'd lost 30 lbs.
Even though I'm an astrologer, I'd never thought about seriously using electional astrology to pick a good time to start a new exercise plan until now. The planet Saturn is associated with discipline, organization and commitments over time. Saturn has recently entered Capricorn, giving us the opportunity to cast great electional charts which emphasize more of Saturn's positive associations. Now I know that weightloss from eating right and exercising is just scientific and not astrological, but the source of my weight issues are fairly irrational, due to psychological issues stemming from childhood (maybe I'll reveal that for a different video). All I know now is that I'm ready for a change and the moment feels right, and astrology seems to reflect that. Anyway, here is the first day of my BigFitAstro Saturn Weightloss Challenge!
