I believe my nutritional goals need to change, not sure to what “numbers” exactly. Currently it is as follows: Calories 1,207 Carbohydrates 90 g 30%…

The struggle is real
Hey. New here. Need to lose 35 pounds to get back to my comfortable "normal" weight. Had to give up Starbucks to start since my daily drink was over 500 calories. And a stupid amount of carbs and sugar. I think cutting that out alone will help. Will find out soon enough ;)
