Introduction Text Hi! I'm Liz, welcome to my page! 😊 I hope you can find something interesting, motivational, and/or helpful for achieving your own goals 🎉 GOOD LUCK! When I was in high school (graduated in 2006) I was very active. I wasn't in perfect shape, but I was doing pretty good. You wouldn't look at me and think I was overweight. In college the focus went from being active to studying and having a social life, which made me gain 20lbs or so in my first couple years. And then during my junior year I became incredibly depressed. I stopped going to classes and hanging out with my friends and I stayed at home sleeping and eating. This caused my weight to skyrocket... I gained over 100lbs over the next 3 years and have been battling the last several to get it off. I have had some success in the past, but each time have gained it all back. This past time I gained it back and then some, putting me at my heaviest weight ever (just over 300lbs). I really think I can do this, and I'm finally at a point where it seems like things are coming together for me to succeed 😁 In March 2020 I started a medically supervised meal replacement program (Optifast) and it's been going well! The weight is coming off and I'm starting to feel like me again ♥️

Lose 80lbs in 2015! My overall goal weight is 150 Finish Insanity!

-I participate in DietBets often, they really keep me on track. -I use an app called Water Your Body to remind myself to drink more water. -I'm active everyday- my fitbit is set to a goal of 15,000 steps a day -I track my food everyday... all the time... not just when I'm doing well! -Not feeling bad if I slip up or do something unhealthy. I'm not dieting, I'm making long-term, permanent changes. It's okay to have a cookie every now and then! :D

You gotta swim, swim in the dark. There's no shame in drifting, feel the tide shifting and wait for the spark. Yeah you gotta swim, don't let yourself sink. Just find the horizon, I promise you it's not as far as you think. -Swim, Jack's Mannequin
