Other things to consider:

Make sure you get 7-9 hours of sleep!

Lastly, something to try... Stop snacking! 3 meals, that's it! when we snack we re-raise our blood sugar to digest food so then our body doesn't have time to use the fat in us as fuel - based on some things read recently, so try it out and do great with the sleep and water intake!

My doctors were very impressed with my numbers in fact one even got out of pen and paper and asked me what I was doing. Lol... no more blood pressure medicine, no more PCOS symptoms, no more IBS symptoms, it was amazing!! 2015, I added fitness for long-term maintenance.
