    That's exactly the attitude you need!

    I started last year on December 6th - I know because it was the same day I started logging daily on MFP and got my Fitbit One.

    Get started get focused and start losing!

    The sooner you start the sooner you start losing - by new year you could have lost your first pound or two!

    Good luck!

    I felt the exact same way in 2011 when I went to a family function and I did not recognize myself in any of the pictures...

    I am starting today. I am tired of gaining weight. I really lack motivation right now causer I'm dealing with so much.

    Hopefully joining this site can motivate me to do what is required to lose a few pounds and stay healthy and fit. I just want to lost 10 to 15 pounds and go from there. I pray we all reach our goals. Good luck ladies:flowerforyou:

    Good morning! It's a beautiful day in central Missouri (so far it's a warm day for December 28th). Our tree and lights are put away and now the goals begin. I have a wedding to prepare for in June 2014. My first born!!! I need to lose a significant amount of weight. My goal for February is 200lbs. I currently weigh 235. We can do this!!! I logged my Saturday morning breakfast ( we usually do a large one) and discovered I have eaten almost my whole day's worth of calories on one meal :(. But, this is just the beginning! Happy New to all!!!

    It is a COLD day here in Central Missouri. I still walked my dog this morning. He doesn't like the cold weather either. Sunday is a lazy day here. The Kansas City Chiefs are getting ready to play and I don't do a lot of exercise today. But, tomorrow is a water areobics class (indoors!) and I will try out one of my new Jane Fonda DVD"s! GOAL: 30 lbs by February.

    Lol. I thought I was the only one with the picture thing. I happened to me on Thanksgiving. At that point, there was no escaping reality. The funny thing is that everyone else in the picture looked like how I saw them in real life. So it stood to reason that what was in the picture was how everyone else saw ME. Awful.

    I am with all of you! I have been struggling with this weight for years, losing and regaining the same 20-30 lbs. This morning I stepped on the scale and I was at my highest weight ever! So I am starting today. I have over 100 lbs to lose and I need to keep trying no matter what.

    Anyone who wants to share support and encouragement, please feel free to add me as a friend!

    Good luck everyone and happy and HEALTHY 2014!!

    I started back to work this summer from being a stay at home mom for 15 years. I have packed on the pounds from sitting!! I have 10 pounds to get off then another 10. I am not dreading this, I am excited to that I have time to get it off before summer. I would like to be half way by March. Looking for support and accountability that is why I am on this site. Would love to make some new friends along the journey. Good luck to us all!
    Cheers-

    This was me a couple of years ago. It was pictures my mother-in-law took at my oldest daughter's second birthday party. I was mortified!

    Good luck, you can do this!! Feel free to add me, anyone really! :)
  • I was in the same boat! My hubby and I started today! Good luck!

    I am beginning to feel muscles in my legs and my abs with just the little bit I've done so far. My dog and I jogged a little this morning. Cold outside, but not as cold as yesterday. My doggy needs to lose some weight, too! Everyone remember to eat your black-eyed peas tomorrow! Happy New Year 2014!:laugh: :laugh:
