I started gaining weight once I started doing in home childcare. Now I weigh 210 and just sick of how unhealthy I am. I stop drinking soda last Dec. That helped.

    I can't stand water. Detest it! But I stopped drinking soda's cold turkey one day and was amazed at how fast and how much weight came off. Around 15 pounds in about a month and a half. I was also cutting other carbs out of my meals (breads, pastas, etc.) so I'm sure that had an affect. Once I stopped losing so fast, I incorporated healthier habits like more vegetables and began eating 4-6 times a day.

    Journaling what I eat every day helps with accountability and of course exercising.. (which I seem to do sporadically just can't find the motivation for that)

    Good luck on your journey!!
