Accountability post. -59.5lbs Yes, I feel as sassy at this photo looks! It's so much easier to pour out to family, readers and friends when I feel good, energetic, and at peace. I didn't realize how the wrong foods effected my mood. And I didn't eat horribly. I wasn't a Twinkie

Accountability report: -58.3lbs I used to believe losing weight required hours of our precious time and that there was something inherently wrong with my body. But guess what? It's not about the time we spend, but rather about the choices we make in just a matter of seconds. 🕒
