Muscle

Killin' it at 49 (and w/this app!)
I sat in defeat + depression in June of 2022. Didn't believe I could take control. Didn't believe I could erase two years of Covid induced, sedentary lifestyle + the 30lbs added to my frame. I changed soooo many little things to pull me out of that nosedive. I was teetering around 195lbs. Now I'm teetering around 165lbs.…
