I lost 30 lbs in the first 3 months and 15 lbs during the next 2. I walked/ jogged , used this app to track my food and I did zumba. I feel great and I've kept it off for 1 year now! I just keep moving and make healthy choices when I eat. Good luck to everyone. If I can do it and keep it off, so can you ! :) MY BEFORE AND AFTER PICTURE IS ABOUT 7 POSTS DOWN BELOW. IT TOOK SOME TIME TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO POST PIC.

    Any strategies you would like to share? Did you use the treadmill or walked/jogged outside?

    Congratulations! I've been working on my weight loss since Nov 17. I've lost nearly 25 lbs. Have you lost more since the last 15 or were you at your goal?

    I put my 2 yr old in the stroller and my 6 yr old on his bike and we just took off. I walked and eventually started to do a little jogging. If I got outside I was more likely to get going. We did neighborhood and trails. Zumba was key. The pounds melted off. I used our wii u in the living room. I still enjoy it to keep tone :)

    Thank you. I met my goal but last week I decided to lose 10 more for the beaches this summer ;) my husband says no but 10 more would ideally be my ultimate goal. Congrats to you too!
