Weekly Update 1!

I'm currently at 270. With that begin said I plan on doing some big changes to the diet next week. Ive done a lot of research and decided to go back to basics, no more overly complicated meals. I will also make sure to take more pictures of everything, meals, workouts, etc. and to log everything! Let me know what else needs to be improved on for next weeks check in, thanks!
