What helped you stick with it?
I have been overweight for most of my life. I have started fitness programs (running, various Beachbody workouts, walking, HIIT) and have worked on healthy eating about 5000 times in the past 20 years. I always give up! Even when I am losing weight! I have no idea what my problem is. What helps you to stick with your…

Starting again, for the millionth time :)
I am constantly starting my journey to a healthier ME, but for some reason, I always get off-track. I am working on figuring out why this is such a difficult thing for me to stick with.
