This is 50! Yes, today I turn 50 and I gotta say, I am super proud and happy. Just over 1 year ago, a friend and I decided to FINALLY lose this weight we have been holding onto like it was valuable. 🤣😅 I started writing down everything I ate and drank religiously in @myfitnesspal, lowered my carbs, talked to my weightloss buddy daily, and lowered my calories. The scale was moving BUT s l o w l y. Enlisted the help and advice from my doc. Lowered my carbs drastically, (not Keto, just hung around 100 carbs a day), started Intermittent fasting (12 hours), and started working out. I also monitored my weight and exercise on my @fitbit The weight really began to fall off. 🎉 All in all, I lost 60 pounds I have been trying to lose for over a decade. A real win and even though I still wanna lose 20 more pounds I am in a great place. My A1C has gone down, I lowered my dosage on my High Blood Pressure meds and the pressure in my eyes has decreased as well. I am in a much better place heath wise!! 🤎🖤🤎🖤 A blog post is coming to give even more details and discuss the food, failures and facts. So, this is 50 and I am happier, healthier and having fun. Happy Mother Fucking birthday to ME!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 #flyageless #fiftyandfit #fifty #intermittentfasting #losingweight #fiftyandfabulous #thisisfifty #mybirthday #mybirthdayweek #september #virgoseason #virgo #BLACKWOMENLOSINGWEIGHT #gettinghealthy #myheathmatters #iamhealthy #blackwomenhealth #womenshealth #ilovemyself #selfcare #lifestyleblogger #weightlossjourney #lowcarbdiet #exercise #overforty #overfifty #sexystyle (at Denver, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEoKaL9l59O/?igshid=5cey7qbqbpow
