Fresh Start

edited November 2024 in Getting Started
I was going to wait till New Years to start, but why not start now? I'm 36 (almost 37) and am seriously overweight. I was 326, went down to 198, and am now back up to 305. I now suffer from SVT and GAD but I believe a lot of it is triggered by the garbage I put in my mouth. I'm finding it harder and harder to do things and I know I need to change so I can see my son grow up. I did it once; I'm sure I can do it again. Good luck to everyone on their journey. Nothing like a new beginning.

Welcome!

    I’m starting on Monday (I know, cliché 🙄). I would start today, but I already made plans for 2nd Thanksgiving on Sunday with my sister lol. Of course, my sister weighs about 115 lbs compared to my nearly 230 lbs. So Monday it is. I’ll add you ladies. Let’s motivate each other!

    Hi! Sent out some requests, I’m getting back on track here today! Saw a picture of myself with my best friend at her sons birthday and it was a harsh reality check! The number on the scale never really sank in but that picture said more than enough!

    Hi all, I'm starting again today don't want to wait anymore, I've been "waiting to start" for a few weeks and just piled on the pounds eating rubbish and not being organised.
    This morning I weighed 241.4 I just feel rubbish so going to do do what I need to to feel MUCH better. I have a little bit too so want to be able to run around with him, or just walk him to school, without dying haha!
    Good luck everyone 👍feel free to add me too 😊
