After cutting out my sugar intake in meals, my weight and body fat has gone down incredibly, I think this is what was effecting, mostly, my tummy bloating.

I will be continuing with my cardio workouts, but now slowly increasing my weights and strengthening exercises.

So far it has been a hard journey. But I have learnt it has been a hard journey because of my thought process about it all.

In the past, I had put a time limit on my weight loss and has stressed myself out when I was not able to get the results at a certain time frame and would give up. Or I would push too hard one day and then need the rest and recovery the next day. Then I would trick myself into thinking I can have one snack, when I knew I would want more and will have more than I should. I also listened to people who thought my process was stupid or that I wouldn't get far. This was all not working for me.

The truth is, in the words or Frank Sanatra, I did it my way! Only I knew what was working for me and I went with it. I failed at certain times, and I knew that process didn't work for me. However, it may work for you. Its a case of trial and error.

If you want some support and guidance, I am willing to lend a hand.
