Vegas!! Gone organic now for a year

Anyone from Vegas here? I went all organic for about a year now and gotta tell you the food tastes so much better! My problem started July of 2014 when my mom had an anuerysm and I was attending college and working fulltime. Everything went downhill including me eating right and going to the gym 4 times a week. That all stopped and I resorted to eating out all the time since I didn't have much time to myself as I was busy with my mom, work and college. I gained a whopping 35 lbs within a half a year!!! I took a break from college and I started goin back to the gym and eating right last month. So far I have only lost 8 lbs!!! Not much but I'm hella happy my weight keeps decreasing. Hope to find some friends on here and together become more healthy!!
