Well, I guess this is a start.

Hellow all! Been putting this off for long enough ... I just started today .. I mean .. I actually started doing something proactive .. and stopped INTENDING to start. Started with a commitment to better nutrition and actually got on my workout clothes and worked out. I have a room full of exercise equipment that has been sitting dormant for some time now. I finally got enough gumption to decide to get going and actually use those thingies or just get it overwith and sell them. So here I am ... and it feels good. At least for now it feels good. Tomorrow .. you better be good to me!

Oh yea, and I even called this morning to join a palates (ahh nuts! I don't think that's how it;s spelled ..but you know what I mean) class starting next week! I think, I'm off to a good start! Wish me luck!

Welcome! I joined in June and have been on again and off again. I started a 10,000 step challenge post for Sept, and that has really kept me motivated to keep moving. You'll find a lot of support and encouragement on the message boards.

Welcome - I will send you a friend request. This is a great site! I recommend you reand the Success Stories and the NSV's (non-scale victories) on the Community Tab. Read a few everyday! They are very inspiring! Also, KEEP LOGGING- even if its bad food - conquer this habit and the rest will follow - it's your learning tool on how to succeed. If you need help with ANYTHING, just ask! Many people will always answer you! Also, MAKE FRIENDS! They are sooooo supportive! And most important, NEVER GIVE UP! :flowerforyou:

Thank you all for your warm welcome!

Yea, this is just the beginning .. and I AM going to be as sore as "HE!!" tomorrow ... but, even that kinda 'sore' feels good. It's a constant reminder of this accomplishment... And believe me .. Today was an accomplishment. Pfffttt! I'm sure I will have that constant reminder for a coupla days .. that searing burning pain when I walk up and down the stairs, when I bend over to pat my dogs, when I try to sit or worse when I try to stand .. Ompppfffh .. and the circus act technique of trying to stand and not touch the toilet seat .. now THAT is a challenge all on it's own!
