Month one and two

November

The first month in weight loss always seems like the easiest to lose weight. 

 

Getting to the gym was my biggest challenge . 

   

I hit the 200 pound mark on December 8th.   

I personally could not tell much of a difference, but others were starting to notice that I was losing weight.  
Here are some of the changes that I made the first month:
1. I gave up pop and McDonald's sweet tea- that was a big one for me.  I love pop and used to drink the Speed Way 40 oz ones everyday along with one or 2 McDonald's sweet teas.  
2. I gave up all fast food.  This was hard because of the convenience.  I work full time and have a part time businesses.  Throw in 4 kids and I do not have a lot of spare time to cook so we were eating fast food almost on a daily basis.  
3. Go to the gym- this one was a struggle for me and still is.  I will be honest and admit I only make it to the gym around once a week.  My goal is to increase that to 3-4 times.  While at the gym I do the couch to 5k app on the treadmill.
