in Introduce Yourself

Hi! I'm new here. Just sharing my journey and goals!
In July 2022, at my highest weight of 221 lbs I made a promise that I would make changes in my life. I turned to my son a 4th year medical student for advise. He Said, mom is all about what you eat. I got my blood work done and we sat down to work on a new healthy way of eating.
The results showed that I need it to cut all red meat some sea food and all fried food. I started my journey at the beginning of August.
Now Dec. 16th. I'm down to 202.8 lbs. Lost 9 lbs of body fat and a total of 18. 92 lbs.
I'm super happy but I still have to lose another 40lbs. It has been a long road but I continue to work at it every day. For sure this fitness pal app has help me tremendously. I'll update in 6 to 8 weeks to see my progress.

    Congratulations on your great progress so far. As a person who has spent her lifetime going up and down and then up again on the scale, I know how hard it is and how important it is to make a commitment and have support around you to encourage you on. I have gained back 28 pounds of the 45 pounds I lost during 2019 and 2020 and woke up this morning very disheartened and disappointed in myself. I found my encouragement in prayer and reading affirming passages from the Bible and found the inspiration to commit yet again. Never lose hope. Never give up on yourself. You are so worth the work and are never alone on your journey. Best wishes to you and keep up the great work!
