My weight was going up in the couple of years before 2020 then went up even more by Fall of that year. Then I got really motivated and dropped 25 pounds and was running 5 to 10 miles a week. Within 6 months I experienced some personal challenges and really sunk into a depression. Gained back all the weight plus 10 more pounds. Mindless eating and drinking and low self worth got me there mostly.
Now I'm thinking more positively. Trying to set myself up for success by creating ways to keep myself accountable. Personal trainer, this app, and being on a team at the gym for a weight/fat loss competition.
I'm 5'6" with starting weight of 163. I've never been this heavy before with the exception of when I was pregnant 11 years ago. No baby on the way so that weight has got to go away!
