245 to 150 doing it this time!

Hey there, names Danica I'm 20 years old and I'm from Kelowna, BC Canada. I'm 245 lbs and I'm working to get down to 150. This isn't the first time I've tried to lose weight but this is the last time as the fear of diabetes and heart diseases is getting more and more real. Please feel free to add me as I could use the support of people who understand. :)

    I'm on a long journey, I am going to lose another 100 lbs this year, already lost 24lbs since I started with a PT in mid November & using Apple Watch

    If I can share what I've found, denying yourself food or foods doesn't work - eat clean, unprocessed food for your main diet & moderation on the rest - stay in your MFP target & log everything - even if it puts you over!

    Exercise is everything & don't shy from the weights as well as cardio - it accelerates your base metabolism rate & really helps.

    Try not to "lose 100 lbs ... rather, lose 1lb but 100 times" ... don't know why but that makes me feel better

    Add if you wish... I don't ramble on quite as much but do log every day!
