  • I have been on this health journey for 10 months now, and I am grateful to be at this point. Although I gained some weight over the holidays, which took months to lose, I am accepting of that because my journey has helped me gain mental and physical strength too. I almost gave up, but I’ve fought to keep going. I was hanging on by a thread and felt myself slipping, but I have worked too hard to let it all slip away. Now, I am refocused and moving forward, unstoppable and stronger than ever!

Wow !!!!!! Awesome job

Pictures of all angles are key to keep the motivation going. Sometimes it’s hard to see the results when you’re in the thick of it everyday. I don’t usually take pics but this time I did. I’m excited to take new ones and see the difference. I also meant to measure and forgot. Next time!

Mercedes B , sourdough is actually a lot better for you. It’s easier for our bodies to digest. Also great for people who struggle with blood sugars and have pro and prebiotic qualities

Crystal S.

Beautiful!

Oh no! Rest up!

My husband was sick for 3 week and right as he was starting to feel better I got it and was sick for 3 week! I have been sick 4 time since thanksgiving. It’s been really frustrating.

I dropped 6 lbs, then nothing since....been meeting my steps, drinking min 70oz of h20, and eating in a caloric defecit every day. feeling a little bummed out. I'm trying not to feel bad about it since my rings are fitting looser and and I think my face is thinner, but I wanna meet that number. We still have 15 days, so I'm hoping I can drop that 5 lbs and "win."

Don't give up! I always plateau before a big loss. Just have to fight through the plateau to get to the loss. The hardest part for me is not giving up because of the plateau.

Mercedes B.

I can relate with you on this. You got this! Keep your head and keep doing what you are doing!

Where do I find the switch to turn off the food noise? It’s so loud!!! I wish it was that easy to shut it up.
