I've got to say, we have been going at it for a good while and have improved our eating, yet we are struggling (especially me) to lose much weight. I'm worried that due to getting the Skyla 5 months ago, that it could be a contributor. I'll keep pushing forward and hope for better results, but i've never not seen results after this long and I'm growing increasingly frustrated that my efforts, while not necessarily wasted or in vein, are not yielding the results I'm used to or expected.

We'll keep going as we took quite a veer off the healthy and very active path after the Half, and I'm hoping all of this hard work will finally pay off not only in our overall health, but in our appearance as well.

Happy Friday!
