Started my lifestyle change on 5/30/16 after talking to my doctor who recommended a registered dietician. I was frustrated I wasn't losing weight like I usually do. I started at 215.5 lbs and waist was 44.5 inches. In the first pic I'm wearing a XXL shirt and jeans size 16. One year later I'm down 80.5 lbs and my waist is 31.5 inches. 
Im wearing the same type shirt but in a XS and jeans size 3. It was hard work but I feel better than ever. When I see my pics now of me now I'm motivated to keep it up. I looked at pics of myself the other day and then was ready to work out lol.

I made sure I packed my breakfast and lunch for work so I cut down on fast food practically cut it out. Made dinner at home. I still ate out every other weekend but made better choices. Reduced red meat. I used to mostly eat red meat and switched to chicken and fish. I also incorporated carbs back into my diet bc before I thought I had to avoid them to lose weight but that wasn't the case. I avoided rice bc that is my Achilles heel lol. Tracking my food really helped too.3 -
