Fitting on rides at Disney
My goal right now is to simply lose enough weight to be able to do all the rides with my kids when we go to Disney in just over a year.

Poor first week...sort of....
Okay. I lost 3 lbs. Which I know is GREAT!!! But...I have about 150+ lbs to lose, and I ate clean all week. Never went over my calories. Went to the gym 4 times, and walked for 35 minutes once. And this was 100% improvement as I was completely inactive before. I really thought due to my large weight I would drop 5-6 lbs at…
