Hi everyone I’m Kelly. I’m trying to get healthy and lose weight. Mostly be healthy though. I’ve recently been kicked in the butt with how unhealthy I am and how I miss being active and having energy. I’m a stay at home mom and I own a tea business I created myself. I’m in desperate need of advice and encouragement because I don’t really get that from my spouse. I started trying to eat better and work out a couple weeks ago and it’s been tough. I’ve already lost 5lbs but I’m losing hope that I’ll reach my goals. I decided to try this and hope for the best.

what do you need advice about?0 -
If you're overweight, losing weight will in itself improve your health.
You lose weight when you eat less, consistently, for real, and for a long time. Are you using your food diary and a food scale?
What's tough? Eating healthily should be easy and moderate exercise should be enjoyable, so what are you doing?0 -
Good luck, Kelly!0
