Turning over a new leaf

Hi everyone! I have decided it's time to loose weight. What better time to start since my work is starting up a biggest loser contest with who ever wants to participate at our job. We start May 29 and go for 12 weeks. I have set a goal to loose 40+ lbs. but I'm a little apprehensive about it 'cause I don't know if I can do it. (If I haven't reached the goal in the alloted timeframe, I'm still continuing till it's reached) I've never actually set a goal to do this before and yes I'm afraid of failing. Any encourage or advice would be helpful. I went to a nutrition store and they had some recommendations that I'm trying and so here goes...

    Great job at your work place to get people involved in that...going to be a shade over 3lbs lost a week to hit your goal but with a big change in your diet and some exercise thrown in im sure you can do it!
