One year on and I’m feeling so good!
I started last year at 0.25, went up after maybe 6 months to 0.5 and have never gone up from there. I’m down 43 pounds, 5 pounds away from my goal (which dropped by 10 pounds so technically I already met it!) I used a personal trainer through the year too so that at least once weekly I was doing full body strength training. Seeing myself losing weight and not losing muscle/getting stronger has done wonders for my self-perception. I was sad that my insurance is dropping coverage next year; I’d been getting it entirely free. But I have months left and am hopeful to either not need it anymore or use it sporadically and pay out of pocket. Not planning to gain any back! But anyhow, I’m just so happy I took the plunge and that I responded well to it. After having 4 kids in 6 years I needed a jump start to lose the weight I’d gained through that process and I got it all off. 😊
