I just started to use myfitnesspal again. I was using another app for my macro's. I upgraded to premium for the macro recording and promise to log every day. I will be more active in the community as well. So add me if you want some support in your journey cause I can sure motivate people!

Here it goes. About 6 years ago I was diagnosed diabetic honestly I was probably diabetic for a very long time and didn't know. A lot of people are or at least pre diabetic and they don't even know. When I was diagnosed my A1C was a 13. Yea I know that is stupid high! Now with strength training and dieting my last several dr visits my A1C is a 6! Woot! I now control it with diet and exercise!Photo below is me on the left at 340+ lbs and the right is 230's. I've lost fat and gain muscle and by the week I am getting leaner. I am addicted to fitness now! I want to help others so add me! If you are on Instagram come say hi. @benjijones_lc. Hope to see ya around and help when I can!
