Alright so January? February March and April have all been a wash for me. As in I didn’t do what I said I would so I didn’t get the results I wanted. That’s so simple to write but damn that stings to take in and accept. I mean, I don’t know how else I think I’m going to get the good health I want if I’m not willing to work for it. Soooo I want to do that by:

Tracking alllll food and drink, everyday
Move my body for 25 minutes x5/week
Drink 64+oz water, everyday

If I can get all three of these down pact, I’ll have an amazing foundation to build on!

I am only very freshly 199... My mind still tells me I am 218 +. Trying to change my way of thinking and find good support and people to help me stay motivated and to hopefully motivate in return.

I have gotten as low as 185 a few times and then I just stop and gain back plus some... I really cant afford to do that now with my health and my age. (49)

I am trying to keep my blood sugar under control and get moving more. I look forward to getting to know you all.

You can't argue with results, which is why my weight loss prompted my husband to join me in using this app. ^^
