in Introduce Yourself
Hi Everyone, feel free to add!

I've been overweight my entire life, but now it's time for that to change! I'm the lowest weight I've been in about 4 years (I'm great at maintaining, I just stink at losing lol :smiley: )

About 6 years ago I was able to get down to 172 from 192 but gained it all back plus more after deciding I could no longer go to the gym 2 hours a day/ 7 days a week and eat nothing but soup, salad, and special K cereal.

I'd love to fit back into clothes that are still in my closet that fit 30 lbs ago, but do it in a way where I can keep it off. It took 7 months for me to drop the first 25.

Goal is to be princess jasmine for Halloween with my belly out (140-155?) :blush:

    Thanks! In a challenge at work right now where I have to go for an hour every day for 75 days. We’re over 1/3 of the way through and doing great!

    You need to meal prep your workouts. Meaning look up workouts that you can do at home without equipment and make it a circuit type. Focus on keeping your heart rate up the entire time. Set yourself up for success. Plan out your workouts and fu**ing kill it! You got this! I expect weekly updates haha jk jk

    You got this. Don’t let the numbers get you down. Stick to a better diet and workout at least three times a week. Just push yourself. Once you start to see results like you did it’s like an addiction. You’ll get there no doubt about it ! 😁
