Today’s featured weight loss story: Den-Ray lost 157 pounds by walking and using MyFitnessPal.com. So many of the BWLW Ladies use MFP, so it’s great to hear about a major success story coming out of it’s use. Check out what she had to say:
“I started by walking with my next door neighbor 3 times a week, my only goal was to make it a mile which took me half an hour. I lost about 50 lbs this way, just walking and not eating so much. My only rules were not to eat unless I was hungry and to stop eating when I was full. My neighbor soon reached her goal and stopped walking with me, I kept going because I liked the results. She was always encouraging and introduced me to myfitnesspal.com. The website helped me track calories without having to do heavy math. I started by trying to eat fewer than 2000 calories and soon moved down to 1200 calories a day. I lost about 75lbs this way but hit a plateau. So, on the advice of a doctor, I increased my exercise to 5 days a week, at least an hour, and began consuming 1500 calories a day. This was much easier to follow and I now eat around 1500 calories when I exercise and 1200 calories when I’m not exercising. I have 58 more pounds to lose to hit a healthy weight, but I know I can make it.” Check out her Facebook Group.

Den-Ray,
You look amazing. I think you have done a monumental job in becoming healthy. I too walk for 30-60 minutes a day along with Zumba and strength. I still have 49 pounds to lose to reach my goal. I know we will reach our goals. Looking at your wonderful pics. I thought you had reached your goal. Congrats and thanks for sharing. Any advice or suggestions on toning the inner thighs? Have to reduce the size. Thanks!!!
