    You can do this Once upon a time I was 230lbs. I was tierd sick and well lazy. I started small 10 mins a day. Then I was walking 20, then 30, before long I was running 5ks and half marathons ( not very fast but I was finishing them!) I lost all the way down to 130lbs in a year and a half! Now the cautionary part of the tale don't think short term. I got lazy again I ate far to little and gained back to 185lbs. ( I lost all of that WITHOUT myfp think about what you could do with it!)

    We all have to start someplace, the important thing is to have a goal and a map to get there. Some of us can run there, some of us can walk there, some of us have to crawl there....but as long as we start moving toward our goals, we are progressing.

    Google says it takes 21 days to form a habit. So take it a slice at a time...a day at a time, or an hour at a time if you have to...the important thing is to just keep moving toward the goal even on days you don't feel like it.

    Slow movement is better than no movement.

    im not a very good friend, i dont really motivate, but i just want to tell you to go for it!!! you can easily be 100 pounds lighter by this time next year!!! the time flies, and once you make it routine, it just happens, and before you know it, your there! your to goal! so go for it, dont delay it like most of us have! i spent over a decade 100 pounds over weight, wasted my entire 20's! every year that went by, i kicked myself in the butt, because i knew i let another year slip by leaving me overweight, unhealthy, low self esteem, and feeling unatractive... just think... this time next year, you minus 100 pounds!!! GO FOR IT!

    Hi Allison, likewise I started out with over 100lbs to lose, but with the support of some lovely MFP friends I am seeing the pounds gradually drop off, a lovely feeling. Still a very long way to go!! I have sent you a friend request and am more than happy to offer any support to get you to goal. Gill
