    I didn't appreciate the true power of logging my food and having a support system of folks who are also on a healthy lifestyle journey

    I had no idea how key it was to log your calories, or at least have a much better understanding on calories!

    I ate carelessly and felt that working out twice a week (regardless of my intake) was enough. The thought of what I was putting into my body before on a regular basis blows my mind now

    This!

    I overestimated my burn and underestimated my intake. Wildly wrong in both directions.

    ... I thought it was impossible to lose weight past 50

    I felt that people should just love the fat ole me :blushing:
