    Hello Newbie Congrats on making the first step, it was only four months ago I did the same! I had told myself tomorrow I will eat better and tomorrow I will exercise. Only to find that tomorrow was only an excuse it NEVER came! My friend told me about my fitness pal and I am now sharing it with my friends and family some stick with it and others check in like once a week. I wanted to say I have lost almost 20lbs just by doing my fitness pal and working out. I don't like to go to the gym because I feel its to crowded and I spend most of the time waiting for equipment and next thing I know I have been gone for three hours. So if I have any advice for you at least get a DVD so you have something to fall back on! My favorites are the biggest loser dvd's such as last chance workout and cardio max! They are killers but I got results fast! Good luck to you!

    I agree. I kept saying "tomorrow I will eat better and workout"...unfortunately it did not happen. But when I saw my wedding photos I realized I could not let this cycle continue. It is definitely hard for me to get out during these cold winter months. DVDs and active video games are a god send. Recently I discovered my wii ( which was collecting dust) is my weapon to get going on my exercise routine. I absolutely love just dance 2 and michael jackson experience. I just received EA sport 2 active...can't wait to start the 9 week course.
