    Starting out I walked. A lot, lol. Then once I felt more comfortable I joined a gym.
    As for eating I stopped eating white carbs (white rice, white flour and white potato.) I cut back on refined sugar, big time.

    There really are no words to express how amazing you look and how incredibly proud you should be with your success. Congratulations seems too small for this but it's all I have. Just amazing! ;)
