I started my journey in January of 2010 weighing my heaviest 235lbs. I lost 40 pounds and found myself at a standstill. I joined a TEAM weight loss at my gym and through a fellow TEAM member found Fatsecret. Just before Thanksgiving I was down to 177lbs. Once the new year began I had moved up to TEAM fitness (a more challenging class) and was feeling really good about myself. Unfortunately I suffered a back injury, and took way to long to realize that i needed to go to physical therapy.
Since I was injured, I couldn't work out at 100%, this is when I should have been more diligent in my eating habits in stead I said "f*** it, this is too hard and I am tired of trying so hard"
So, here is the bottom line...
I have been away from fatsecret for about 6 months and have gained back between 15 - 20 pounds.
What this has made me realize is that I need accountability and keeping track of my foods is a necessity! Fatsecret is the BEST site I have found for this and I am ready to get back on track.
I love the community support and look forward taking this journey with you! Can't wait to start seeing our progress!!!
