So I used MyFitnessPal years ago when I lost about 100 lbs and it helped me just keep on track with the amount of food I ate in a day and overall if I had gained I would look throughout the week with where I could maybe tweak some things so I could shave that weight off the following week. I still ate some things that aren't necessarily diet foods but I didn't feel super deprived and it helped me lose alot of weight so I have come back since I have gained the weight back over the years with stress, work, kids, my mom's passing etc and just overall life and I just ate whatever I wanted as an emotional way of dealing with things in my in life and for family celebrations , friends , work etc..I have no become so mad at myself for letting myself get back to where I started and worked so hard for. I even constipated weight loss surgery but I know if I did this before I can do it again. The extra weight has impacted me in so many different areas of my life and I'm no longer the go getter and confident woman I once was. My body aches and I get tired much easier. I hate clothes shopping and seeing old people I know. I want to be more active and outdoorsy and I want my bf to be turned on by me and be proud to be around me and I want to be proud of myself. It just would make my whole life so much better with the weight gone and I've just come to the conclusion that it has to start NOW. I have stopped drinking regular soda and diet soda and switched to all black coffee and water. I also have eaten way less than I was and my stomache is slowly shrinking where I get fuller faster. I turn down alcohol sometimes and I wait to eat til lunch most days so typical fasting. I'd like to incorporate more and lose at a healthy pace where I keep It off and learn what is best for me and what I can learn to love in my diet and I know it will help me reach my goals. Welcome every body. I apologize for the long post but it is to give a background of me. I hope to encourage someone out there that's like me to just start today and know that you can do this! Cheers 🥂
