Introducing myself

Options
Hi everyone, I joined 1 week ago because I have been struggling with my weight since I had my son he will be 9 years old in 2 months. I will lose some weight gain it back, lose some weight and gain it back and I want to lose and keep it off. My goal is to be 20 lbs. lighter by my 47 birthday which is in October and continue to loose 20 more mores after.

    My husband and I started slowly changing our lifestyle. Cut out most of the fast food which we lived on. Cheaper for 2 than cooking sometimes. We started walking just 20 - 30 minutes a day. Reading labels and making better choices with food. Weight just seemed to fall off for the first 3 months. We have been doing this now for 190 days and have lost about 50 lbs each. I don't believe in "diets" but this new lifestyle has made quite a difference and is easy to do. Kind of a game to see what you can eat and stay within your calories. We walk a lot more now that we are lighter but know we have to do something we can sustain. Good luck!
