33 Inches lost in 7 months
Hey all, I just thought that I would post about the importance of taking monthly measurements during your weight loss journey. There are too many times when the scale does not move that you begin to think you are failing. During those times stop and take a few minutes to do your measurements. You will be really surprised…

Please look at my typical day...
This is today's food...no exercise today besides a small amount of strength training. I am constantly over on carbs and sugar.

Dehydrated Fruit
