WHAT was that number on the scale?

Yep. This morning I saw a number on my gym scale I've never seen before. A Twitter pal told me about this site last week, and I decided it was time. I've been working out for years, but I'm a very picky eater and haven't been eating well. Plus, this summer, my job (crazy snafu) didn't pay me for two months, and I was super depressed and had a foot injury - so I couldn't jog. I gained a whole lot of weight very quickly.

Things are back on track, though, and I need to put my health before anything. Plus, I'm single and 30 and want to look good. So. I have added Zumba to my workouts during the week to take the place of jogging. I will still jog on weekends occasionally, but I kind of need my foot.

Today was a special 90-minute Zumba, and I swear I just keep expecting to lose 10 pounds during those classes. Alas, it hasn't happened yet.

So here I am, willing to give this a shot. I'm ready to feel good again.

Make it a lifestyle and not a diet. Good luck:drinker:

You'll do great. Like dls06 this is a lifestyle change not a diet. My biggest tip if to remember to get 5 servings of fruit and vegetables in every day. It makes a huge difference.

That number got me here, too! Welcome and good luck!

Thank you guys! Yes, I certainly can't call it a diet. I think that little word is the devil.

But yes, veggies, fruits, portions. All of it.
