💬 Discussion Any goals/ideas for 2025?

Here are mine.

  1. Be mindful of my diet. Cut out any sugar, carbs, fat as much as possible. I’m 29M so I figure now’s the time to start watching my weight and diet, although I am healthy.

  2. Go back to counseling. It’s not for everyone, but in my case life was a lot better when I was seeing a therapist. I recommend it to anyone who’s on the fence about it.

Regarding the scoliosis it’s very possible. I was diagnosed in 2021 when I was 12/13, had like a 22 degree curve. I wore a brace for the next 2 years, and at the start of this year, my curve reduced to 3 degrees.

Idk how old you are, but if you’re a teen, you’ve got this

I tried to change it during my teens, but due to various reasons decided to just attend the massage therapys, didn't even research more about the braces, but it do look quite uncomfortable... Seeing how long it took for you, I was quite naive to think I could fix it within a year, Ig I need to hurry consult with the doctor as soon as possible🥲 Thank you for sharing your story🥹💗

Hey, i just wanted to chime in real quick. personally, i was born with scoliosis and wore a brace from age 2 to 15. the braces are most effective while you're still growing since your bones are not as soft anymore once you stop growing. however, physical therapy is a very useful tool which i would highly recommend (i started going when i was 2 months old and it has helped me tremendously, still does), as well as the schroth therapy (there are physical therapists that are specialised in that). you might even be able to go to a rehab center for all of this but it depends on your insurance and all that.

Thank you for your advice💗when I wrote it in my list, I was convinced by many that the best and only way to change it at the age of 20 was through gym🥲

you have to be careful with the exercises you do in the gym as well because since your spine is curved, your muscles are probably not “in the right place” either (that’s the case for me at least), so training all muscles the same amount could be counterproductive but i recommend to talk to a doctor and/or physical therapist about that because it just depends on your individual case 🤗
