HI! Weight loss isn't something that will happen over night. It does take a lot of work. I have been on this journey for almost 2 months. I started out at 228 and now I am down to 202. I have changed my eating habits--incorporated more fruits and vegetables. A lot of what I do is portion control! It takes some getting used to but now I don't even second think it. I also walk a lot--outside and at the gym. Feel free to add me!0

Every time you fall down you need to get back up. There will be bad days, but don't let it ruin your week.
Personally I really find the American show Extreme makeover: Weightloss edition very insperational. (Many episodes on youtube)
Can't say I've been where you are, but if you are ready to put in the effort I'm sure you can do it!
Good luck on your journey. Feel free to add me if you want.0
