Follow me on my weight loss Journey which I started in February 2020. There will be ups and downs no doubt, its been eventful so far. I have had some obesity related health problems including gestational diabetes, which led to a difficult pregnancy and a traumatic birth. I couldn't walk without pain for months after giving birth. I have slowly built up my fitness to where I walk a minimum of 10k a day, every day and there is no more pain! I'm aiming to be the healthiest I can be. I chose to make this journey to ensure I can take care of my baby, which I do alone and to make sure I'm around as long as possible for both of my daughters.
I try to inject some fun into this journey, some of my videos are funny and silly. Enjoy!
I'm 5'8" and my starting weight was 251lbs. Goal weight is between 140lbs and 160lbs. I will decide my actual goal weight the lighter I get as its not about the number on the scale, its about how good I feel and how fit I am.
