I lost almost 50 pounds by calorie counting back in 2015, then stopped counting and spent the next six years slowly putting it all back on. I've used Libra to track my weight, and you can see the half-hearted attempts over the years to halt that upward progress.

I've been sick of being overweight, of feeling sluggish and unattractive, and of having a hard time doing things l love like hiking and rock climbing. I stress eat a lot, and not to jinx things, but I've finally reduced the stressors in my life where I'm feeling really good about this latest weight loss spree.

Fingers crossed I'll be posting here sometime in the new year about having hit my goal weight!
