Finally starting back up again
Hey guys! In 2017 I really got into my groove with myfitnesspal and managed to go from 228 pounds to 160 pounds in about 8 months. For the first time in my adult life I wasn't obese, and I was SO close to a normal BMI! This had a phenomenal effect on my self image and my self esteem. I felt like a door had been unlocked in…

Recipes
I thought it would be fun to share recipes that you have tried and really like! I know I have trouble sometimes finding healthy, low calorie recipes that are not chicken or turkey dishes.

AHHHHHH
Hi, my name is Tiffany and I'm almost 230 pounds. To be honest, I'm pretty tired of it. I'm on my third day of actually (trying) working out and counting calories, and I'm pretty scared I'll lose the inspiration like I did multiple times in the past. I'm a huge introvert so writing this at all is extremely intimidating but…
