Small Town, Big Goals

I live in a small town that does not have a gym and I work third shift. My goal is to lose about 50 pounds. I know I can do it but it really helps having other people with the same goal encouraging you :smile:

    I use to not think very highly of myself (physically and mental/emotionally), now i'm retraining my brain (and stomach lol) to see the pretty in this live instead of the ugly :)

    I use very little equipment for my workouts. I have a exercise bike, a normal bike some weights, treadmill and a cross trainer. Now you could get away with maybe just a bike and running/walking and a few cheap weights for strength. I am only 5kg down but its working so far.

    Good luck
