    Hey guys been a minute between working and moving to my own apartment. I am all moved in to my new apartment, yay me, it's been a long time overdue living with my sister was great and will miss all the camaraderie while I was recovering these past 3 years.

    Just a little encouragement for those who are struggling or caregivers there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
    I confess I'm terrified due to certain health issues but I am getting one of those alert buttons but I am much better healthwise and 85lbs lighter than when I last lived on my own in 2019.

    God is so good 2023 is turning out to be my year. After 7 years of being disabled and having to have an Aide to care for me. I have been able to return to work and now have my own place.

    I did gain 1 pound this week which I think is freaking awesome considering I had fast food 3x this week.
    Last week I lost 4.8lbs and the week before I lost 6.4lbs putting me at 465.5lbs right now my lowest since May 2018

    There are similar groups such as https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/114605-fat-2-fit-weight-loss-challenge-and-support-group
    Hope the person is okay. If I wasn’t so busy I’d jump in to help but I’ve got to much going on.

    I’m part of this challenge group as well and they’re very welcoming and its a great space

    I haven’t been weighing in or posting daily. Wasn’t sure if the group still existed. Are we just going try to keep going?

    Well Slimsons, it was great belonging to such a great team of people known as the Slimsons. Even though we have not met each one has made a difference in my life. Our journey to be a healthier version of ourselves is not over. But I believe for myself it is time to leave this challenge. Thanks to Gloria and all volunteers.
