Introduction Text I was a depressed college student diagnosed with sleep apnea and chronic back pain when I decided if I wanted my life to change I would have to get off my butt and make some big changes and fight for the life I wanted. That was 4 years ago when I weighed 320lbs. Now I weigh less than 145lbs by doing it the NATURAL way of counting calories and exercise:) Some things about my weight-loss: -I have binge eating disorder so thats why its taking me longer than most to get the weight off. I lose gain lose gain the same 5 lbs a lot of times. -I still HATE exercising and do the minimal I have to. - I do have excess skin but my arms and legs dont look that awful, its my stomach that makes me look larger than i am unfortunately. Things I can do now that I couldn't do before: -Fit into class desks/Airplane seat/Amusement park rides comfortably -Shop in regular stores like American Eagle/ Forever 21 -Fit into size 9 shoe (I was a wide 10 sometimes 11) -Walk miles at a brisk pace without feeling like im going to die lol -Feel comfortable wearing mini skirts/shorts in public -Attend social gatherings with confidence and not feel embarrassed by my weight. I've been in maintenance mode for the last year but it's been a struggle due to my binge eating. I still have managed to maintain my weight between 145 -152lbs though. I feel I am close to kicking this bad habit of mine! Clothing Size 26-Done! Size 24-Done! Size 22-Done! Size 20-Done! Size 18- Done! Size 16- Done! Size 14- Done! Size 12- Done! Size 10-Done!

To become the best me physically & mentally possible by working hard and not giving up!

There are no magic pills! My plan when I first started out and for a year and a half: -Counted my calories/Calorie Cycling -3-5 HRs of cardio a week -Measured every portion using a food scale/measuring cups -Drink 6-8 cups of water About 1 year ago I started eating Low Carb my way though: - 30-100 netcarbs a day, 1300-1700 calories per day. Higher calorie and carb counts for exercise days. - 1.5 -3 hours of cardio a week -Drink 6-8 cups of water a day -multi vitamin, magnesium supplements, biotin -Yerba Mate tea (Got off coffee!) KEEP MOTIVATED: Have a reward system and find an event to lose weight for (wedding, graduation, birthday etc.)
