When I go for my daily walks I run into a lot of people that ask me if walking is how I lost a lot of weight. I tell them that it helps, but that I had to change my eating habits too. You can always tell that it’s what they don’t want to hear. I lost weight by diet, and exercise. Just so you know… there is no quick weight loss. What I’ve learned over the past two years is that if you want something then you have to work at it. I also know that it’s not fun, but I will say I look and feel ten times better than I did two years ago. It also is a learning thing for me because I did slip out of my routine for a little while to take a break, and I found out how fast you can gain weight back if you don’t maintain, and keep up with how you do things. All I can say is that there is no quick fix once you lose what you want to lose, and if you stop working at it and go back to your old ways it will come back faster then it came off. Someone once told me that for things to change you must change. I’ve learned this is true whether or not I like it.

It has to be what you want for you. Good job, well done.
