Personal mile marker!

On my own, several years ago I was able to lose 70 lbs on my own. I didn't do it in a healthy way. I basically stopped eating. I might have gotten in 300 cals a day and was a gym junkie. My hair fell out and I was so malnourished that when I stood up in my sisters wedding, I fainted mid ceremony.

I then met the love of my life and got happy and ate again and gained it all back. 10 years later I had gained a lot more and was at my heaviest.

I got sleeved 4/20 and I'm officially down to the max I was able to lose before! 70 down and counting! I've lost a lot less hair, I feel so much better, and my quality of life has improved greatly! Every pound from here on out is a new highest weight lost!

Best decision I've ever made and I can't wait to see where I'm at by this time next year! Thank you all for the help, encouragement, and tips throughout this process! Love you guys!
