Day 1 of my weight loss journey

Hey! I’m new here. I have a big goal of losing 60lbs by the end of the year. I have a plan of breaking my goal into 2 smaller goals. Currently- I’m 229lbs and my goal is 170lbs. My short term goal? Lose 30lbs(get into the 100’s), by my birthday which is June 17th. Exactly 12 weeks! Focusing on cardio and calorie deficit. The other 6 months left of the year…? Losing the other 30 lbs while focusing on simultaneously doing a body recomposition(building muscle/toning while still losing fat)! I think I have a pretty solid plan☝🏽❤️. Good luck to me and to all others out there. 32a75c489038.jpeg

    Hello everyone! Looking to lose 65 pounds this year. Have had big life challenges the last 3 years that have really defeated me emotionally and I have gained a LOT of weight (63 pounds). Looking to turn it around and would love to have people to check in with every week. Maybe do a virtual check in call every now and then to talk about the week and share the journey with etc.... Good luck to all of you!!
