06/03/19: 205.8 - got rid of 0.8 for a total of 2.8... wish it was more, but I’ll take it 👍 Guess I’m a member of the turtle club 🐢

07/15/19: 199.6 - ONEderland!! I’ve gotten rid of 9 lbs. ordering wedding dress a size smaller is a real motivator. And I started a low carb diet that is really working for me, along with a lot of walking. I don’t know if I’ll make my 20 lb goal but at least I’m moving in the right direction. If you are stuck, check out the ap- Carb Manager1 -
I have been "out of the loop" as of late...my husband lost his job a week and a half ago and it has left me scrambling to pick up extra classes at the Y and kind of lost in a funk, but I will get back in the swing of things this week!1
