I find that seeing other people meet their goals and exercising encourages me to want to be successful. So I am looking for people to add to help me On my journey!
My freshman 15 became a sophomore 60 as well and I gained a lot of weight during my first two years away from home. So much that my brothers were scared of me when I got home one summer. My health was declining quickly and one day I just woke up and decided I was going to change everything. I started walking the log way to class. Skipping out on sugary drinks more and taking Zumba classes to start moving I lost 40 pounds in about 8 months!
About a year ago I hit a plateau and have remained constant at 196-200 and I know it is because I haven't pushed myself beyond my limits, so my new goal is to push myself to continue to lose weight Because I believe I can now I believe it's all in my diet and strength training.
Long intro but I feel like someone out there is like me.
