My Noom Journey (25 pounds lighter)

I joined Noom back in mid-October. I basically was at a point that I really felt like I needed to do something about my health. I did lose around 30 pounds back in 2019. I counted calories and exercised. But the moment stress hit (we listed our house, we sold our house, moved, life), I gained it all back. I gained about 15 of it pretty quickly, then the other 15 over a year or so. COVID baking and take out did not help either. I had heard about Noom from many sources, and I finally decided to give it a go. I knew it was similar to counting calories, but I heard the articles could be habit changing. This is key to help me maintain the weight loss after I succeed. I received an email with an 80% discount, and I decided to just do it. I signed up for a year upfront. I did get a 2 week trial for free, however. I will try and do a post all about their app later. But you can find my experience so far below! I also created an instagram specific to my weight loss if you want to follow along. I am hoping it will help with my accountability as well. It is @livingmore_weighingless.

My Weight Loss Journey Part One

For as long as I can remember, I have always struggled with my weight. As most teenage girls, I was very self-conscious, and I always thought I was “fat”. Even though looking back, I was far from it. And I saw a post on instagram one day that said “I wish I weighed what I weighed when I first thought I was fat”. So much truth in that statement. I was never skinny or even super small, but I was healthy.
