Hello all I have been away for a longtime. I am doing well. It's good to be back I have to update my profile to chart my outstanding progress. I will do it tomorrow. Going to bed now.

Hi everyone Krystal how you doing? I am feeling very good. I was weighed and measured and I have now lost a total of 16lbs and a lot of inches. My waist went from 47 to 39.5, hips 56 to 55, thigh 37 to 33.5, calves 19 to 18.75, forearm 10.5 to 10.00, bicep 16.5 to 14.25. All the hard work with my trainer and eating changes are working out for my good. Just thought I would give a praise report.

HI everybody It has been a longtime since I posted. I am doing well. I got a personal trainer who is very good. I can see weight and inches lost. Due to my PCOS it's slower than most but I am not going to give up. I lost 8 inches off my waist, 4 inches off my thighs, 1 inch off my hips. I am happy. Just thought I would share that.

hey i have NSV. I went to the gas station down the street from my house and the gas station attendant commented that I was losing weight.

hi everyone my trainer did my weight and measurements yesterday. i am down 7 inches in my waist and down 2.5lbs. just a little praise report

thank you soo much for your encouragement. I did better today and I am going to do better tomorrow. I do love you all and thank you for taking this journey with me.

I needed that today Krystal. I have not been posting and I have been feeling really crazy. I am getting depressed and I can't seem to shake it. i hate the way i look and I feel like I will never have the body that I want. I don't date because I am ashamed of my body. I haven't had sex in 13 years not just because I am trying to wait until I get married but because I don't want anybody to see me naked. I am trying not to cry as I write this. See i don't have anybody to give me a push to support me. I have to be that push for myself. Well u all were my push but I got frustrated and left my support group. BOTTOM LINE: I am back and I promise I will not leave again. I have a new attitude and I know that it has to be me and nobody else. I have to look in the mirror and love me regardless of what I see. It's going to be hard but I am going to make it there. Let's keep encouraging each other. I love this Place

Hi all i haven't been here inawhile. Just checking in. I haven't lost anymore weight. I was a little frustrated but I am not anymore. I have a personal trainer so I am doing cardio and strength training. She said that I am losing inches. I have had a few people tell me that I look like I am losing weight. So I am still working hard. It's been five months and I thought I would have seen a considerable difference and I haven't. I still have restriction though. I PB'd on a salad this weekend. Just the spinach. So I am going to stay with it.

Hi all I haven't posted in awhile. just wanted to check in and say hello. I am doing well not great. I have a personal trainer that is working my butt off. my abs are so sore. i am on a strict eating schedule. no eating after 7 no white anything bread, rice only multigrain. I am going to see how this eight weeks works. Pray for me. I am excited though. I hope all of u r doing well.

Thanks Krystal U r so right GOd doesn't give us anything that we cannot handle. So I am going to remain prayerful and strong. BY coming here daily I will and have been strengthened.

Hey Family It's been a minute since I posted. I have been having a rough time emotionally. Had a bad break up and my TOM. I am doing well haven't had much of an appetite but when I do I eat. The last two days I have made considerably bad choices. Monday I ate rib tips (5) and tuesday night I ate a polish no bread and a couple of fries. Yesterday I got all liquid calories. I haven't been out in awhile and I went with a friend and had a total of 4 beers the entire night. I know my choices were very bad. I think it is healing to put them down on paper and read them. I will be in the gym double time to clean up what I messed up. I too love something sweet, but I have my sugar free butterscotch and green apple and jolly ranchers on my desk that I pop in when I fell a craving and they do the trick. The nutrtionist also said that after I eat my Protein, veggies, and fruit that if I am still hungry and need something salty or sweet that I can have the 100 cal snack portion, but not to eat the whole bag. To be honest I haven't even had a desire to eat them. Well just thought I would chime in.

I am looking for a personal trainer. I don't mind if I have to travel, join a gym, or get trained in a barn. My hard earned money keeps me committed to appointments. I had a good personal trainer that stopped training
