Hello!
I lost 26.4lbs on here (started mid January--my goal was only to lose 21.4) but have since gained back half of that and now I need to get back to my goal!!
SOOO as of yesterday I am back to tracking again and working hard to stay under my calorie goal but man it is tough -- I have tried many times over the past several times and I keep falling off the wagon (I *knew* maintenance would be the hardest--but now I'm back in weight loss mode darn it!)
Anyway I would love to have some more friends to help encourage each other...
A little more about me (perhaps we will have one of these things in common as well--if not that is totally fine as well!)
I'm vegetarian (ovo-lacto), I also eat gluten free as it helps reduce my migraines and in hopes that it will help my IBS-D. I go to the gym and do weight training + some form of cardio 3 days a week (or 2 if I'm having a bad week!) and then try to get in at least 2 or 3 runs on some other days of the week. I have kids, and work and too much stress and struggle with emotional eating hence I'm here!
Anyway, I'd love to have more friends to support and to learn/grow from so add me!
