Weight Loss

Looking to begin or renew a weight loss journey? Perhaps your spirit is in need of a little lift. These posts come from my own successes and interesting learning experiences. They are collected here to help readers navigate the early days of lifestyle change or rejuvenate your goals to build a sustainable healthy future.

I am not a health professional.  I strongly encourage anyone to begin working with a doctor, naturopath, nutritionist, or other wellness professional before beginning any weight loss or health improvement journey.
