I am 35, and have been overweight for 8 years. I was never overweight before, never had to workout, never had to count a calorie, so all of this is SOOO new to me! I am looking for friends who can help me with questions along the way! Seasoned or new like me, we can learn along the way.
I have "started" this journey about a year ago, but not to lose weight! I started by stopping! i quit smoking almost one year ago. I recently also started taking protein shakes to help me with reducing calories.
My main problem in this journey that I have noticed in the last month is late night snacking. My husband works night shift, so I usually wake up at noon, and go to sleep around 4am. SO, 9-10 pm would be my typical "dinner" time, however I cant get it out of my head that this is "bad" for me! SO, i find myself snacking instead of eating a meal. I have also discovered that my COPD is making it more difficult for me to work out than I thought! However, i am doing it! 10 minutes 5 days a week to start on the elliptical. I am looking into swimming soon.
Thanks for learning a little about me, and please read my profile to learn more! If you think we could help each other, please add me!
Thank you! for listening!
