Default trying this again
Hello again! I frequented this place... a ways back... and then some things happened, and some more things happened, and I'll give you a brief summary of said things: in May of 2014 my mom asked me to move back home because of her growing health issues, she needed the help, so my boyfriend and I parted on good terms and I moved back down to Florida. It's been... stressful, but I feel good about the decision. I'm working part time, helping her nearly full time, and... having trouble in my weight loss journey. I bounce between 190 to 183, and then I'll steadily work my way back up. I'm sick and tired of it. I was at 188.6 this morning, so... so hopefully coming back here will really help me out. I'll take a look around after I'm back home from work, just to see what's been going on.

Cheers! It already feels good to be back.

ETA some details: As of this morning, I've lost a total of 70.2lbs. I've gone from wearing size 24 pants to size 16s (and they're loose, but I have too much belly pudge to fit into 14s comfortably, but they do fit my waist). I want to scrounge up some pictures for a progress post.

Thanks a lot! <3 And yeah, I've lost a crazy amount of inches, I wish that was something I'd tracked from the start.

Thanks you three. <3 CruiseChick, I was doing weight watchers at first (just points, not points plus), but I've changed to 1330 calories a day (it's just less hectic that way). As for exercising, I'm just trying to get back into the habit of walking more and more. I do about 3 miles of it at work, scattered throughout the day, it's my weekend days that I want to focus on more.
