Me last year/me this year (pics!)
I started my weight loss mid April of this year. I've lost 24 lbs since then, and that included a month spent travelling europe eating all sorts of yummy things and drinking too much!

Having a hard time..
The past couple days have been really hard on me emotionally, and my eating and exercise habits have not been great. Does anyone have any tips that are healthy when you're having one of those days?
