I'm Mimi and this is my anonymous weight loss blog. I'll post updates on my progress or lack of it, current health information, recipes, articles, workouts and quotes.
My diet history & why I eat low-carb.
I have PCOS & anemia and because of them I don't follow a mainstream diet. Some of my posts include controversial information and topics. If this bothers you then please don't follow me.

Officially starting Sunday July 3rd.
I’ve decided to use July to start Prevention’s Fit & Fabulous 4-week challenge. I need to ease back into working out after only being able to go for walks the last couple of weeks. Since the challenge focuses on shorter workouts with small bursts of intensity I thought it would be easier to build back up using it. Plus it doesn’t take up as much time as my typical routine and it has an extra day off each week. I thought that I’d post it up here in case anyone wants to join in or use it at their leisure. I’ll post week 1’s routine in a little while.
