This was 5 years ago and toward the beginning of my own weight loss journey. I started closer to 190.

I was always a bigger type girl. In the last few years, I have adopted a healthier lifestyle. Several people have asked me to start posting more meals and tips. My first tip would be to take progress pics of yourself and don’t compare your fitness journey to anyone else’s.

Foods I have enjoyed lately. You can still eat delicious food and be healthy.

You can’t expect to eat fast food daily and still lose weight. This is a hard pill for some to swallow.

Weighing yourself is a good indicator of weight loss but it isn’t the only way to measure changes in your body.

I recommend that you measure your waist.

I am down 4 inches around my waist. How long did this take?

This took 4 long years.

Plus, look at that spike up. I could have quit but I didn’t.

Also, take pictures to see your body changing.

Weighing on the scale is just one way to measure weight loss.

🔥 IF YOU WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT IN PERIMENOPAUSE OR MENOPAUSE… START WITH A MORNING WALK IN THE SUN.☀️🚶‍♀️
Most women skip this — but it’s one of the MOST underrated fat-loss habits.

1️⃣ **Boosts your mood + motivation** 😄✨
Sunlight increases serotonin, making it easier to stay on track.

2️⃣ **Helps regulate your hormones** 🔄💛
Morning light supports cortisol balance, which matters even more in perimenopause + menopause.

3️⃣ **Improves deep sleep tonight** 😴🌙
And better sleep = better fat loss, better cravings, and better recovery.

4️⃣ **Speeds up fat loss** 🔥
Walking increases daily calorie burn without raising hunger — HUGE for women 40–50.

5️⃣ **Strengthens joints + reduces stiffness** 🦴💃
Especially helpful if you’re trying to get strong and stay active long-term.

6️⃣ **Supports bone health + Vitamin D** ☀️🦴
So important as we age.

7️⃣ **Clears your mind and reduces stress** ✨🧠
A calmer body loses fat easier.

🌞🚶‍♀️ **10–20 minutes in the morning can completely change how you feel — and how your body responds to your fat-loss habits.**
This is one of the first things I teach inside **Counting Calories with Crystal**… because it WORKS.

💬 Are you doing morning walks yet?
