The Journey to a Healthy Lifestyle

Before:

In 7 years, I went down from over 400 lbs. down to 197* lbs. I hated being so large. It was horrible to be that obese. How I lost all that weight? Working at a horse farm and cleaning horse stalls. 550 calories an hour + many more calories doing other horse chores. :) I also have fallen in love with working out, riding my bike around campus, walking long distances, doing bicep curls, planks, swimming, and riding my favorite horse Leo occasionally. :)

P.S. - That's one of my best friend's who took the January 2017 picture. :D

Hey, good for you! Choosing to do something (anything!) and sticking with it is *so incredibly hard* but also super awesome. :)

Fantastic! I know how hard it can be... especially considering I'm struggling with my own journey to a healthier me. Congratulations!

I'm also on a fitness journey and just started working out to become a healthier me. The hardest part is not the exercise but the diet and I'm very bad about self control, so here's trying. I don't weigh that much and would honestly stay this weight if that's what my body wanted to do, I just want to wear smaller clothes again! lol

Good luck on your journey and I hope the best for you!

Wow thats a lot of weight lost! Congrats! I started getting into working out and strength training about a year ago. I was always really skinny with no shape. I actually have gained about 5 lbs of muscle and I look way better, I actually have a butt for the first time in my life! Feels great too.
