Hello all! My name is Evelyn, 21 years old, mother to an almost three year old girl. I began this journey in 2014 with many, many bumps along the road. I was at my highest of 229 pounds. I was miserable, with the lowest self-esteem I had ever experienced, very self-conscious, didn't want to go anywhere or see anyone. I was in a toxic relationship that damaged me very much during the 5 years we were together. I left him and soon began to work on loving myself again after hating myself for so long. After three short months, I lost 31 pounds with just tracking calories. I didn't work out at all during this time. I knew I wanted to lose more, but unfortunately life got in the way with taking on school full-time, working 30 hours a week and raising a toddler. I'm back at this journey and ready to love myself more with each passing day. Any tips, success stories, advice, etc. is very much welcomed!
