Hello everyone! I am getting close to being about halfway through my journey to goal and starting to maintain. It's been about 6 months and I've lost 50lbs, That was all in about a 4-5 month time frame, for the last month I've just been maintaining after having a hard time getting back on the wagon after a vacation, but I've been doing good for about a week now. Anyways the reason I'm posting is because I've realized that I really like helping people with their weight loss goals and I am hoping to get more friends on here to help along the way and for them to help me reach my ultimate goal! I started at 280lbs and I am not at 227. I have eaten literally ANYTHING I want, but I keep within my calorie goals (Most days, I do have cheat days and I don't count on special occasions. ) And I exercise randomly.. I mean really random, could be 3 times a week, could be 0. Never know what ur gonna get!! I have a 1 year old so it most depends on him and work. I would love for more people to add me and I promise I am active and will help in any way possible!! Good luck to everyone on their journey!!9sl9qasl3mms.jpg

    I can relate to the random exercise bit, because that is the way I operate, too. i would rather be outside than in a gym, so walking and biking only happens when the weather is suitable. You are doing a great job sticking to your caloric allowance. Keep up the good work!
