Introducing Myself: Adlena

Hello, I'm Adlena! I live in South Georgia and I'm on a journey to a healthier happier life. I turn 40 this year and I've been over 200 pounds since I was in Middle School. I'm hoping to break this in the future. I've decided earlier this year to stop eating meat and animal products and I've decided this week to try intermitten fasting with a daily 8 hour eating window. I don't exercise much but I want to begin working out at least 3 days a week next week. I'll try to post updates so that I can stay encouraged. A few weeks ago I was 288.3 pounds. I've been vegetarian going vegan for over a month. I realized I wasn't losing weight because I was over-compensating for not eating meat at meal times and I was snacking all day. So I've stopped snacking and I'm sticking to 3 meals a day from 9 to 5 at no more than 1500 calories a day. The only restriction I really have is no animal products.
