A New Journey

Hi! Lyn here, 53. I have Chrohns Disease but have been in remission for 5 years. My specialist has allowed me a break from my meds due to my well being. It will come back . I will only do this break from meds once only, see how long I can achieve remission for, anywhere from 6 months to years, time will tell. My mission now is to drop my weight and eat well and carefully. I will eventually need steroids again so its vital that I lose weight for a few reasons .I also gained weight with menopause but also from not watching what I eat. I am excited now to turn this all around. I am loving the app, seeing results. Also enjoying finding new recipes and adding them to my app. My motivator is my dog who makes me walk him every morning , this app, I find it so informative and my results after I weight myself really drive me more. Learning so much.Thanks for reading!
