Weight Loss Journey
Hi! =) My name is Melissa Van Heck. I found this site today and though it would be a great tool to continue on my diet journey. I have been on a diet for about a year now. Last Thanksgiving I weighed about 235-240. I am currently at 177. I feel great about where I am and where I have come from but I still have some more lbs to lose. I want to be at my initial goal by Christmas which would mean losing 27 lbs in less than two months. I think it is feasible but will require a lot of hard work. This time last year I was in a size 16 and am proud to say I am able to wear a size 12 now. I was very active in high school and weighed in at about 120-130. After getting married (like many do) I started to gain weight and let it get out of control. When looking at pictures of myself a year ago I am disgusted and ashamed but I just look at it as water under the bridge. I have been on a low carb diet and can say it works!! I do cardio and weight training whether it be running, yoga, an elliptical or whatever I try to work out everyday. Any advice or helpful tips on losing the last 27 would be great! Thanks
