Dear diary

It’s day seven and I’m surprised I’ve managed to post everyday and work out everyday but one 😭🤣 I’m so proud of myself. This app is holding me accountable and I love it . I think I have 12 flowers now which is crazy to me 😅hey y’all lol

I’ve managed to lose 6 lbs so far so that’s exciting! I keep my calorie intake at 1200 or below everyday even on Saturday. I’ve kept a clean diet this whole time which has been the easiest part of this week . My only issue is I have a horrible sweet tooth and I’m having trouble finding good alternatives. Feel free to comment and share your favorite healthy low calorie snacks cause I’m strugglingggg #letschat 🤣🤣

Today was arms and back with yoga in the morning and after the workout. Next week I plan on posting more about my routines. Maybe will even get some video content who knows 🤷🏾‍♀️lol
