Just wanted to say hi to everyone! Been yoyo loosing weight since I was 18 and now at 26 with a baby I need to get my weight down big time! I lost 70 lbs when I thought I wanted to join the military, but that plan fell through and I put on another 80! I've tried numerous times to get on a plan, I would lose 10-20 lbs and then lose my motivation and gain more than I lost.
I've never been able to find the motivation I found when I lost my 70lbs the first time around until now! I started off 2 weeks ago at 256 and I'm now 247.8! Its coming off a little faster than id like but im eating over my caloric limit (1700) sometimes as much as 300 calories. The nicest thing is this time around I am not craving sweets and sodas like I have the last few times I've tried. Unlike all the other times i've tried loosing weight; the food im eating is mostly clean. Wish me luck! Trying to hit 200 by October!
