"This game gave me motivation."

#PokemonGO: So, three months ago, I was at 250 pounds. A full 75 pounds overweight for my size. I wanted to get in shape, but I had absolutely no motivation to go to a gym, or work out at home. I started playing Pokémon Go, and moved up from a mile a day, to 3 miles, and now I'm at 5 miles a day. I'm down a full 50 pounds. In three months. 😲 Of course, I've made lifestyle changes in addition, like eating better and drinking more water. But exercise was the one part I had trouble committing to. Now, every day, I can't wait to get out and explore. In spite of all the complaints about the game over the past couple of years, it has been a lifesaver for me. Literally. Like, I just got back from my five mile walk, and I'm already looking forward to tomorrow. 😅 via /r/pokemongo https://ift.tt/2M5ZyAH
