Hello everyone;

I was on a weightloss program and recently lost a lot of weight but I still have much more to go so I decided
to join this website for advice, tips and great support to help me finish my journey to a healthier, happier me.

I added progress pictures on my profile in the picture section.. I'm not sure if that's how it works or not haha.

Thanks for reading :D xo.

    Question....I just signed up to this website a few minutes ago. It says I need to eat 1200 a day and I will be walking 3 days a week...do I need to eat back the calories I burned???

    No, do not eat back the calories you burn. By eating & burning your daily limit that you have set for yourself will ensure your success.
    I work for a weightloss clinic if you are wondering. I lost 90lbs in 7 months using portion control, exercising 5 days a week, drinking 10+ glasses of water a day and making healthy choices when it came to foods but I did not deprive myself.

    wow, thats amazing! I need to lose 70 lbs to get to my goal weight. During my pregnancy I gained WAY too much weight...its been 16 months and I still can't lose the weight, I started right after my son was born b/c my cravings had changed back to eating healthy. While i was pregnany I didn't want anything healthy, I forced myself to eat salads and veggies and got sick from it, so at least I tried and now im paying the price. I went to a retail dept store to buy a couple pair of jeans...I almost started crying in the changing room, my son was staring at me so I didn't cry but I can't believe I'm this big, I hate it. :( Something HAS GOT TO GIVE!

    Veggies & salads can get so bland and boring you have to be creative and make something brand new. You will love it! I can message you a few recipes that will ensure you get your 2 cups of vegetables per meal and needed portion of protein.
