My success story! with (hopefully) pics!
So I am about 6 months into my journey, and I never wrote a “success story” cause I didn’t think I was at the end of my journey (and therefore, successful). But looking back on everything that’s happened and how far I have come (and looking at my own before and after pictures even I’m amazed). My heaviest weight was 272…

A not so good day...
My trainer today asked me when the last time I weighed myself was. I told him last week. He asked me to hop on the scale. I didn't really want to do it (but kinda did). Turns out, I'd gained weight. Just 2 pounds...and it was a different scale... but stll. I was pretty heartbroken. I feel like I've been working my *kitten*…

But let's start at the beginning. My name is Jen (as we know) and I am a 29 year old female living in…
