What Will Happen to Your Body If You Walk Every Day

- Walking is a totally free, easy exercise that requires little effort, and benefits not only your physical but also your mental well-being. If you’re looking for a simple yet very effective way of losing weight and improving your overall health, walking is something just for you.
People who are physically active throughout their life are much less prone to this disease than those who have a more sedentary lifestyle. And that’s because they have more volume in their hippocampus, the part of the brain responsible for verbal memory and learning.
A daily half-hour walk helps avoid serious problems, like coronary heart disease to name one, by lowering high blood pressure and cholesterol levels and improving blood circulation. Because of better-quality and deeper breathing, some symptoms associated with lung disease can show significant improvement thanks to walking.
Muscle tone and weight loss is also totally achievable through simple walking. Find your optimal pace, but don’t break out into a jog. This sort of speed walking is low impact and doesn’t require any recovery time, which means no sore muscles to keep you from getting out and walking the next day.
The Arthritis Foundation recommends at least 30 minutes of moderate walking a day to reduce pain, stiffness, and inflammation in the joints. Building strong bones will help you prevent osteoporosis and reduce bone loss. Walking contributes to better blood circulation within the spinal structures, pumping important nutrients into the soft tissues and improving posture and flexibility, both of which are vital for a healthy spine.
A group of researchers at Iowa State University worked with hundreds of college students. Walking changed their mood for the better, even though no one warned them it could do so.
If you still don’t feel motivated enough to start walking for your health, try joining a class or find a buddy who also wouldn’t mind getting all the benefits of walking. Another idea could be to hire a personal trainer.

SUMMARY
-Walking prevents the early onset of dementia, reduces the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease and improves your overall mental well-being by reducing stress and releasing endorphins.
-Get on the road to improve vision and protect your eyes now from potential problems, such as glaucoma, in the future.
-Walking is no less effective than running when it comes to the prevention of heart disease and stroke.
-Walking is an aerobic exercise, which means that it increases oxygen flow in the bloodstream and helps eliminate toxins and waste, which is great for your lungs.
-Walking for exercise is a surprisingly more effective way to prevent diabetes than running is.
-Just half an hour of walking every day not only lowers the risk of developing colon cancer but also improves digestion and regulates bowel movements.
-Just 10,000 steps a day can be just as effective as a full-blown workout at the gym, especially if you add some intervals or uphill walking.
-Walking can provide more joint mobility, prevent the loss of bone density, and even reduce the risk of fractures.
-Walking is a real life-saver for those who experience back pain during more challenging high-impact exercises.
-Walking improves depression symptoms in patients with MDD, just imagine how easily it could help us cope with just feeling down or exhausted.
-Keep in mind the FIT formula. It stands for Frequency (how often), Intensity (how fast), and Time (for how long).

I love walking, guys! I walk 5 to 8 km (3 to 5 miles) a day. What about you?
Btw, this habit is also extremely good for you: czcams.com/video/TmORMKTHuOs/video.html&
BRIGHT SIDE 3.5 miles per day over here. Being out in nature and doing something good for your body refreshed your mind, body and soul. I love it! #walkwithconviction
i don't like walking, but i love running. walking is boring for me
Take up street or landscape photography.You will walk for miles and not even know you have.I have shed probably 2 thirds of my weight without changing my diet or deliberately exercising
BRIGHT SIDE l walk 5 km for three times a week
I'm doing 2 miles 5 days a week. I'll walk more now that the weather is better.
I am 84 and had a heart attack 25 years ago. I walk 90 miles a month and it drives away depression. I am in better health than I have ever been. I have 60 BPM pulse, 119 chloresterol. My doctor calls me his hero. You just cannot be unhappy watching the sunrise and listening to Aretha Franklin R_E_S_P_E_C_T. I love life and surround myself with fun people.
Well done, you have inspired me, you are a hero, congrats.

I quit smoking about 6 months ago and I didn’t know how to deal with the cravings, so I started walking. Now I walk about 1 hour everyday and I feel great. I don’t get tired easy, my mind is at ease and I don’t crave cigarettes anymore. I enjoy my walks more.

Doctors can't prescribe walking, or can they? 🙃
Yes the eye sight one was an interesting one
I am 24 years old and currently over 18 stone. Last year my mental health hit rock bottom.. Last week I decided to ditch the antidepressants and get out walking on my own for 40-50 mins a day. Already I am feeling so much better and cried for the first time in years just at how much happier I am feeling (And possibly the side effects of not being on meds). I hope somebody reads this and makes the same decision I did- You can do it.

Nice!
What's 18 stone?

Thanks !! You saved my time
I've been walking 10,000 steps before 10am Monday-Friday, by the end of the day I am averaging 15,000-19,000 steps. My body has literally been transforming before my eyes each week!

So glad you said this. This is so encouraging to me.

@@lindapirtle4282 Thank you Linda!!
When I retired at 60 years old I started walking at 3 miles a day. I am 90 years old and try to walk at least 1 mile a day. It’s not as much as previous but it’s better than nothing.
Wow!!! How are you now?
Yes! Don't stop!!!
Keep it up
Lady it sounds like you are living your best life, keep going👍
I want to be like you when I’m older
I go wallking every night for 40 minutes. My girlfriend of 4 years broke up with me yesterday and my heart is broken but I still pushed through my 40 minute walk tonight. I cried most of the way at first but I felt better after the walk. I hope walking helps the pain of my broken heart go away.
Update: So it's been nearly a year since this post and I found out a few months ago I wasn't just broken up with. I was being cheated on for about 4 months. I thought she was it and was gonna marry this woman but I dodged a bullet, I guess. She would have cheated on me eventually. I am still walking every day and I am seeing a therapist because she really did a number on my self esteem. Thank you all for all your supportive comments and encouragement. I am 60 pounds down and I don't think I would have had the strength to carry on with this weight loss if she hadn't shattered my heart because I only started walking to help me cope with the sadness of the breakup. I suppose everything happens for a reason.
Jessie Palermo i also started daily walking after my husband passed away. It does help me sleep at night and my depression. Also i lost weight from 90kg to 75 kg in 3months of daily walking.
No problem use ur high testosterone and new one and get marry nice one 🐣🐤🐥
I have a disabled parent. I live next-door to her. If I don’t get my walk in, I start to feel crazy. LOL. I love to look at flowers. There I go with my great funk and great thoughts. Nothing like a good walk to clear your mind, and to remind you that the seasons will change no matter what.
I’m so sorry! I know those feels
Hang in there ...
These comments are inspiring. I started walking last week and I feel better. These comments encourage me to continue
I have been walking ever since I started walking myself home from school. Even when people used to make fun of me including family members…I’m healthy and happy!
I’ve had those same people watch their health deteriorate and then tell me later on that they should’ve been walking with me.
❤❤❤to walking!
I started walking 30 minutes a day since April and I lost 20 lbs in 4 months. I feel great!
But that ALSO had to do with what you ate and not just walking right?
I ate 3 healthy meals a day and drank lots of water.

Been walking 3-5 fives times per week for over 30 minutes each time for the last 5 years. I was 20 and now 25. I am a TOTALLY different person now, physically and mentally. Hard work always pays off.
It's been almost a year since I started walking 7k steps a day and can't reiterate much how much it has helped me to keep myself fit. Now without a walk, my body feels lethargic. I am going to continue this for years to come. Cheers!

I've been walking for a year now, two miles a day most days (once in a while I take a day off). Much to my surprise, my medical results have been better. My othamologist tells me that the pressure on my optic nerve has receded so I won't need drops to avoid glaucoma, and my regular doctor informed me that my lung capacity has improved dramatically. I am now a believer!
Thank you for your story. It is very inspiring.
I walk 29,000 steps a day and I used to be a heavyset guy. I was 305lbs, now I’m 235lbs going down to 195lbs… walking is a REAL THING! I feel healthy and amazing 🤩
Hello, can i ask? I wamt to start walking. how long it took from 305lbs to 195lbs? also, did u do this everyday or there’s a rest day? i hope you can answer this ncause i really need the info. Thank you so much 🙏🏽
@@gloriagoweh just start walking and you will get your own results🙂👍
Wow! How cool! Congratulations
I was at 380lbs and over 57 BMI. I have severe osteoarthritis and literally no cartilage left in either knee. Im gone on a diet and am walking for 5 minutes at a time but I am walking 10 times a day for 5 minutes and am already feeling loads better. in less than 2 weeks I've lost 16 lbs and I feel like this could be finally be it for me. A better life here I come!
Congratulations!!!
I have been sedentary so long that walking up and down steps is a chore. I was trying to walk up and down five steps (seven times) even that makes me short of breath. I'm going to walk in place and then march in place and I'm believing there will be a vast improvement. I weigh almost 300lbs around 280-290lbs. I want to lose 1-2 lbs a week. I'll see how it goes.
Congratulations!!!
I've lost 30 lbs in just few weeks. Walking was part of it but largely my reduced diet. I ate 1/3 of what I used to eat.
Congratulation keep going !!! you will see the goal every day closer. Hope you enjoy life better each day.
Warm hug from Switzerland
That’s awesome, Jose! Keep on going!

Thank you "Bright Side"...I keep walking for over a year from 3000 steps to 30,000+ steps per day..and I got to tell yah..my body feels lighter bcuz I lose weight 264 pound to 160pound today...
I've been walking about 15km a day for over a year now, it's honestly the best thing I've ever done. I always come back in a great mood from a walk even if I left feeling stressed and down. I can eat basically whatever I like and have a stable weight. I would highly recommend for anyone to fit as much walking into your day as you can, it's a game-changer 🙌
15 km? That is impressive I couldn't even imagine doing that every day
Wow, that’s over 9 miles a day! That’s amazing! I try to do at least 30 to 35 miles a week. Keep up the great work.
How long does it take you? It used to take me 50 minutes to walk 5km to school. I walked pretty slow but, I imagine if your doing it for fun you'd probably walk a bit faster
Well done!
Impossible

You can do this! Take it one day at a time.

I lost so much weight 3yrs ago & my energy was off the 📊 chart❤
I've been walking at least 20,000 steps a day for the past 16mths and lost 12kgs. It's great for my mental health as well as my physical fitness. I used to find it hard to stay motivated but now it's become a way of life and l can't imagine not walking every day.
I have diagnosed PTSD from being in a war while in the military. For 10 years I lived a very unhealthy lifestyle.
About two years ago I weighed 445 pounds. One day, something clicked in me and I realized I had enough. I went outside and went for a walk. I didn't do 30 minutes because I physically couldn't. But each day I went out and gradually increased how much I walked.
Now, two years later, I have lost over 200 pounds and I am walking 2 hours every morning. I've changed my diet and I have a social life with friends and family.
Walking not only changed my life, but it saved my life in ways no medication ever could.
My advice to anyone who wants it: Start small and don't give up. Just walk around the block. Build yourself up to that first mile. And, before you know it, you will be doing 7, 8....15 miles every day. Just don't give up.
I salute you. You're a real inspiration. Thanx for sharing.
Thank you for your service! I just wish it was worth it. Good luck to you with your journey. Stay healthy!
best therapy ever...
Thank for your service, very inspiring story, im only 12. Its nice to know people in this world can always change for the better. Good luck to u and your journey.

I recently found this beautiful park with walking trails. They are even marked 1/2 mile or one mile. Do as many Laps as I want in a safe environment. Where I live the people drive up on sidewalks or drive into things constantly I’m in a senior development and it’s dangerous to walk.
I am trying to start walking more - sometimes I walk on the weekends but it’s just rlly time consuming (apart from that I don’t have a problem I with it)

What's your result now? I'm experiencing same issues due to 9 to 6 work on chair laptop!
ive been walking daily for about 2 years. it has had a huge positive benefit for me. i lost 45kg, improved my mood and i even completed a 10k walking race in 90 mins. walking is simple and powerful. i started by just doing 10 minutes per day and now i can walk for 3 hours comfortably. i have even started playing basketball and running. walking is awesome!

I am 33 years old. I started walking on April and I've been doing it almost everyday. The benefits I've seen are: my memory has improved, I can go up the stairs much more ease, my mood has improved, I have much less back pain, my gastritis is much better, I feel more toned, and also have lost about 2 - 3 pant sizes. I am not checking at the scale... I just noticed the difference when I wear my pants or jeans. I walk at work during my 15 min breaks. I've noticed others doing it too. It's just a gift that keeps on giving.
I began exercising today ✌💞👍💥💯💞 One of my sons paid a personal trainer. I just didn't know how to start. Will work out twice a day. And the other days of the week, I will walk for 45 minutes. My children are so happy I'm doing this. And so am I 😊 I hope for the best!!
WARNING DO NOT WALK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD as shown at the beginning of video. That has been shown to be likely to shorten your life.

How much you loose
I lost 90 pounds in about a year walking daily. When I started, I weighed over 500 lbs and could only manage walking about 5 minutes at a time. I'd get about 3000 steps. By the time I got to 90 lbs lost, my walking improved to around 8000 steps daily and could walk for about 45 minutes at a time.

@@ronnieking3848 thank you ❤️
Bro! Congratulations. It's incredible. You should be very proud. Are you still walking? I hope so. I know it's hard to stay active. I have high hopes for anyone who wants to be better. Keep pushing. Stay healthy have fun. Big smiles.
I’ve been walking for over 20 years. Usually around 30-90 minutes listening to tunes and observing the sunset. Just spices up my life
I love walking as I walked every lunch break during the 30 years I worked. Even now on retirement since 2011 I’ve continue to walk 10k steps daily. Shall turn 78 in August, it’s the best gift one can give to one self.
Walking consistently has helped me sleep better at night.
Williams J same.
Me too from depression i got used to sitting all day, and not eating enough, ever since i upped my protein and started walking for an hour every morning i can finally fall asleep around 9 or 10 instead of midnight
Same!
true
Right after walk I feel so tired and again sleep fr hours 😰😰
Hello, my wife and I walk 10 kilometres 5/6 days per week. Including the benefits listed, it provides a solid platform to share, discuss and manifest. The relationship grows, married for 25 years.🙏🏼
❤️
I’m at 23 yrs of marriage, we both like to exercise but never together. I like your story and will work on getting my husband and I together! Thanks for sharing!
Yes. I love walking with my husband
My husband and I just started doing this. It’s fun. My husband likes to talk a lot and I am better able to pay attention when I am walking. It is very nice.
I hope both of you stay safe no matter what
Diabetic, and in the beginning stages of kidney failure. I've started walking 2 miles a day in the hopes it can save my life. This video gives me hope at least.
Walking is great. I walk 30 minutes in the morning before work on all working days + I walk 30 minutes extra everyday during lunchbreak with colleagues. Wouldn't want to miss it.
I used to walk 1-2 hours a night. It didn't start for health reasons. I was just bored. It's also where I always came up with all of my best ideas (I'm a guitarist, and aspiring singer-songwriter).
Hi. I think it’s really cool how your working to become a guitarist. I’m an aspiring game developer and I started walking for the same reason, and found out it helps me come up with ideas, and I’m currently working on a game with a friend.
keep it up guys! you can do it. your works will be known someday :)
@@angielynalmazan8512 thanks!
Write a song about walking.
Same here 🙏🙏🙏
I have been walking 5 miles per day for 6 weeks and I’ve lost 17 pounds.
Fantastic many I ask how many cal you have each DAY?
Do u walk in 5 miles in one go or in steps...how much time u need to walk for 5 miles
uzerish x I use pacer too ! I’ve compared it to another app and pacer is far more accurate. !!
Aron I dont diet. Ive been eating around 2000 calls per day.
@@MiamiPush2theLimit OK many thanks for the reply
I tried it and I'm walking three times a week 30 minutes and I'm starting to feel much better thank you so much
I started walking regularly 2 years ago. I walk 3 to 6 miles (occasionally more) but make sure i do hills which make me puff. The exhilliration on top of a hill is quite amazing. Also the incredible SILENCE away from humanity is peace inducing. I just stop and take in the moment.
My husband and I walk a mile or more every day it’s not raining. I have lost 20 lbs since mid August and he has lost 6. I started before he did. Looking great again at age 65! Got my figure back and he can’t stop looking!
You go girl!
Ok Gayle!! Out here turning heads 😍
I would love to look at your figure too;)
Hope you remain as healthy as are you now 😘
Yay!!!! 👏🏻
I used to work from home. One time I realised that I did not leave the house for 3 days. I then decided to get a dog so I can be forced to get out of the house on a daily basis. I now walk a minimum of 3 miles every day with the second dog. This was one of the best life decisions I’ve made.
Lucky dog! Mine only gets about a mile a day with me
to anyone, pls don't get a dog if you do not really love animals... taking care of animals is a commitment.
@@georgechrome4735 I apologize for the confusion. We wanted a dog for about a decade. We were both professionals with limited time spent at home and we did not think it would be fair to leave the dog alone all day long so we kept on postponing our decision. When I started telecommuting we could finally have a dog at home with me 24x7.. We loved our first dog and adore the second dog; both rescued dogs that saved us. We treat our dogs as our kids. I simply wanted to provide one of the many benefits dogs offer.
@@beas3993 Thanks for clarifying Bea! 💜
Happy for you!
I’ve been walking everyday for these past 4months and lost 13 kg
Thank you for your help ,I am in my 80s now ,you have given me the motivation to get serious ,my Doctor has been pleading with me . Now I know why . I have lost 22 Kg but he is still pushing the barrow for me to walk walk walk Best wishes Rob in Western Australia
I'm a big guy. I was 260 pounds when I started trying to get healthy. I had a doctor tell me not to run (unless I LOVED it) because I'm a big guy....so I'm walking now. I have been walking for about two months and I'm averaging around 9k steps a day. I enjoy my walks and I'm down to 237 pounds.
Don't stop. one-day u will feel without walking no happiness
Congratulations!
Congrats, Brad. Keep it up!
I was a chain smoker and a regular drinker, trust me exercise changed my life, I totally feel like different person.
Alhamdulillah ❤
I'm so happy I found this video and it did inspire me to get steadily building this routine and I'm now in my 2nd month of making it a practice and I am now averaging a 1/2 hour to 40 minutes in my walk at a nice tempo. I also signed up for an app on my phone that counts my steps and I find that really beneficial to charting my progress and inspiring me to strive higher
Thanks for your posts, everyone. I walk every day and it has helped my physical and mental health tremendously. Reading your posts inspires me tremendously!
I was in an abusive marriage for 25 years, I am 55 years old. The last years in the marriage were horrible. I filed for divorce a year and a half ago. I haven't been able to finalize the divorce, he is a horrible man. While I was married I was suffering from a lot of stomach issues, headaches insomnia and my bones were hurting. I began walking my dogs for 15 minutes everyday a year and half ago. I am up to walking 60 minutes everyday. I have lost 25 pounds and people tell me I look ten years younger. Mentally I am stronger now, no more depression. Walking has literally saved my life and my sanity. You just have to make walking a habit a part of what you do everyday. I am a school teacher and as tired as I get from work, I get home and head out to walk my dogs. I have completed my first walkathon. It's never too late to start taking care of yourself. I ma very glad I started walking.
Maria Royval very encouraging, keep walking!
That is so awesome and encouraging! Thank you and keep on keepin on!!🌻
Maria Royval So glad things are looking up for you❤️Keep on keeping on!
I hope you're doing well and that you're happy!

I started walking daily for last 10 days and have started getting a sound sleep. I agree with all the benifits mentioned in the video. Thanks.
I started recently started to walk least 1 hour or more 5 days a week, and can tell it has improved my mental health and absolutely physical health.
I took a break from the gym for a month and walked 10k steps everyday and my body changed so much in that time
How did it change
@@LydiaSantiago he got fatter

I've been a Postman for 4 months now, walking 15 miles or more a day. Unbelievable weight loss and positive impacts on mental health as well as physical health, no gym no running, just walking. Obviously it's quite a lot more than general as its work, but still.
It’s always wonderful when you get paid to exercise, super added bonus. I was a chef for 35 years it was a full body workout in the heat! 63 now walk every day a minimum of 2 miles in the morning, but by the end of the day are usually have five Miles in. Not looking for weight loss I’ve been the same size pretty much. I always love the energy it gives me.
Used to be a postman for 5 years, left 15 years ago and still walk everyday what ever the weather
I’m a postie too
@@tiborzkarate1 Postman and woman in the UK walk a lot when they deliver mail as we don't have post (mail) boxes at the end of our drive sso they have to walk up and down drives, streets, apartment blocks. And they seem to wear shorts whatever the weather come rain or shine, sun or snow.
@@tiborzkarate1 they eat like sharks thats why
Thank you for this. I recently started taking a walk everyday with my husband for 2 weeks now and we both feel amazing.
You have no idea how many times I’ve shared this video over the last five years! So many people try to discourage me from walking on the treadmill, …Especially trainers at the gym!!! I share this video with every single person who asks me “How did you lose 100 ponds?” “How do you stay fit?” “What do you do for mental health?”(“me time” on the treadmill!) 🥰
How many minutes or km ? Do u walk . ? Will b thnkfull f rwply cause i hve no other choice to walk rather then threadmill
I'm 65 years old I've been walking for 25 years almost every day.. I was a distance runner in my youth. I have a 6-pack and am in better shape than anyone my age that I've ever met. Works for me!

Fantastic motivation
I just started walking. I have a 12 pack.

I have horribly bad tinnitus to the point I was having multiple panic attacks a day.. walking for 20 mins a day for a month and still now ? My mental health is back to normal ! GO FOR A WALK ❤️
Did it help with your tinnitus?
Walking has changed my life! Easy in your joints and the fresh air and just great things that happen to your mind, body and spirit!
I’ve been walking 5 miles everyday for almost three years. Eat clean, move often and be happy! 🙏🏼😃
dsaint2one 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
5 miles mean 10.000 steps well done I am start too today :-)
Awesome 🔥👍
I've been walking for the past 18 months, I'm amazed how much peace and calm walking brings to my mind and body, I recommend it for managing mental health. 😊👍
Yes! Walking is meditation. Also if you can walk out in. Nature it is healing as well
I am 82 yrs old and recently I walk 5000 steps a day. I feel healthier
I work in aged care and my clients that are the most active are the ones that are always walking. It's a huge inspiration to me as a 20 something year old. I live right by the water with city views in the background in Australia where the sun always shines, so it's hard not to get out and about! I am always looking at what the long term benefits are, so this is great info!
Sunscreen?
About a year ago, I started walking with a Fitbit, goal of 12k steps per day. By doing this and eating better most of the time, I lost about 30 lbs in around 6 months time. I now can't stand going a day without a 30 minute walk. It's part of my daily routine and very relaxing part of my evenings.
🙋♂️Same here.
Inspiring, losing 30 lbs not easy
That’s insane
Same here , I lost 22 lbs and now I can’t stop walking even thought it’s very hot where I live in summers
How much time for 12k steps per day
Music is the reason why I'm obsessed with walking. It makes me want to walk if the music I'm listening to is LIT.
Yes!!! Walking and listening to music is the best. 🎶🚶🏾♀️
What kind of music is LIT?
Same 😆
When I want to stretch my walking for a couple of extra KM. I switch on to some of my favorite music and I will be easily able to achieve my target without pain.
Lit,is your favorite type of music🙄
i totally agree with this research as a regular walker myself. if you are careful with your diet as well as walking daily, you will see the change in your body and health.
Fantastic. I am a regular walker and keeping fit even at 80
I'm 80 years old. I play golf 3 days a week. I walk and push a golf cart when I play. According to the app that I use, I walk about 5-6 miles while playing golf. On the days that I don't play golf, I go to the local park and walk 5 miles. I used to be able to do it in less than 90 minutes, but lately I'm up to about 95 minutes. Must be getting old! Anyway, I feel better at 80 than I did when I first retired at 57. So glad that I am still physically able to walk. Strongly recommend it.
I started intermittent fasting plus i walked 12000 steps everyday i lost 6.8 pounds in my 1st week of IF and walk.
how do you IF ? do you have any articles? My life has become so sedentary since the pandemic and I keep eating garbage. I'm trying to lose some weight and get healthier.
@@victoriayoung4451 16/8 method, fast 16 hours, 8 hour eating window. My eating window only consists of a very nutrient dense smoothie and a very large portion dinner which includes veggies, complex carbs such as brown rice or quinoa and lots of lean protein, chicken, turkey, fish. Also include healthy fats such as avocado, nuts and beans.
@@itzMeWilly Thanks so much for the info!!
I'm also doing the 16/8 IF and walking 12000 steps minimum a day...haven't weighed myself yet :D
Wow... awesome..well done 👍I just started IF and walking. Hopefully I lose some weight
I've failed to lose weight so many times but not amymore. Walking can help me lost a lot of weight in 6 months. You're not gonna see a result right away but trust me don't give up. I was 175lbs when I started. One day i decided to start walking because I was so insecure about how I looked. I lost 30lbs+ in 6 months. First thing I noticed is my face. My double chins disappeared and then I noticed my waist is smaller then noticed my arms is smaller. I can wear whatever I want and eat whatever I want. Just make sure that you're also eat healthy and get enough sleep. So trust me even if you feel like giving up just remember why you start.
Great advice, thank you and well done 👏
