Long ways to go

Hi my name is Denise. I’ve been large for as long as I can remember. I used to not be active at all but I’m doing better. I’ve gone from 445 to 420. Yay! My goal is to get to 150. Like I said.. long ways to go. More and more lately I’ve found myself in pain where before not so much. I think all this weight is finally taking a toll on my body. Especially my knees and my ankles. Ugh. I really need to lose weight. I want to be around a long time and I don’t want my weight to be a contributor to any health problems. I’m lucky so far that the only issue I have is my blood pressure is mildly high. I’ve cut back on my eating and I’ve been walking a mile and a half a day. I try to get some dance cardio in as well. Even though I look like a goof doing it. I’m going to need all of the motivation I can get. My friends I have already on mfp have been great. Feel free to add me and we can motivate each other.

Nice! Before you know it a year will have gone by and you can make SO much progress in that time. In the grand scheme of things, the time it will take to get this done will seem like a short part of your life. And totally worth it.

I too have a ways to go to reach my goal weight of 170. Baby steps and focusing on what is most important in my life is my motivation. You have taken those first steps and you're on your way...Keep up the good work and forgive yourself if you mess up. YOU can do this!!!

Dance cardio sounds fun! I love to dance, too. I hope you set some interim goals along the way.
