It's been one year since I started tracking my calories and I'm happy to report that I've lost 69 pounds.
I never thought I would be able to say that but I've devoted all of my life to changing my ways from my walk with God to my eating habits. Some days are harder than others but for the most past it's a mental thing... If you tell yourself you need to go to the gym then base your day around going to the gym after work.

I hate to say this but it's hard for me to hear people compliment me... I get very uncomfortable for some reason. (I'm trying to work on improving my self-esteem though haha) =)

    This is an awesome and true post! It is a mental thing and the click of sorts happened for me too when I placed God in the mix. I read a book called made to crave and I have not turned back! Congrats on your loss and awesome year!

    AWESOME!!!! It took a while to get used to the compliments. It takes a while for your mind to get used to your new body and realize you're not "fat" anymore.

    I am also reading the devotional Made to Crave and have the same inspiration and motivation. It does become challenging sometimes but it is definitely a wonderful change mentally, physically, and spiritually!!! :)
