An intro to my journey

Hey everyone I’m new to the whole community thing but I’ve been on the app going for about a year now, started my weight loss journey in the summer of 2019 at 315lbs and the last time I weighed I was at 248lb, the reason I started losing weight is because I am joining the Army and they have pretty strict weight restrictions but I put in the work and made it to 26% BMI and finally passed MEPS and I am looking to be going to basic in late February/ early March, tbh this app has taught me a lot and I shall keep using it whilst in the military, my goal weight is 200lbs and I’ll post back when I’ve reached it.
