Cheesy post alert: I just want to take a second and brag about how far I've come. I let it go that far because I was in really dark place in my life and I turned to bad habits. In April three years ago I started making changes for the better. Looking at life with more positivity. Slowly but surely it has led me too where I am today! I'm 179 pounds lighter! I lost more than a me! I'm incredibly proud of myself not only for the weight loss but for the positive changes I've made in my life.
My journey is still ongoing I still have a little farther to go. It has taken a pause in the past couple weeks as I'm getting closer to my goal. So I'm coming on here looking for some motivation. I getting married in November so it would be great to lose 20 pounds before then. If anyone wants to add me or even add me on snapchat mjlevesque24 we can motivate each other!

That's amazing! What did you do?0

At first all I did was eat healthier. Started cooking my own meals. Then I moved somewhere where I had to walk to work, which forced me to do 15 minutes walks twice a day 5 days a week. Simply doing that I lost 70 pounds. That's when I had to get more strict and had to start counting calories and increasing exercise.27

I actually have a dress already I was lucky and got one at a sample sale a month ago. It's a size 10 which is my current size but I'm more than happy getting it resized

I do have a lot of extra skin on my stomach and around my arms. I have huge bat wings sadly. But thats something I can deal with. Makes for good conversations haha
