Hi there I'm going to start by saying I got myself here and I'm going to get myself out of it! I can make excuses all day long of why I got to this weight but the only real excuse is i let myself eat what I wanted and didn't exercise. I just joined a gym this past week after exercising at home for the past 2 months. I went from barely being able to walk through the grocery store to walking 1 to 3 miles a day! anyways I hope all of you reach your goals! have a blessed night:flowerforyou:

Hi Melissa!! I'm just starting out as well. I've been exercising for a year now, but have never watched what I ate until recently. I have 97 pounds to go. We can do this!!!! You are off to a great start, BTW!! :flowerforyou:0

I love your attitude Melissa! I am in the same boat you are. I can make excuses after exuses but the real reason is lack of discipline. I want to be healthy so I can have some energy to play with my kids and live a healthy adult life! Lets do this!

You can do this!!!! It looks like you are off to a good start, Just keep at it and the weight WILL keep coming off!!!!! I started at 209 and I am now down to 170... I felt like giving up so many times but dont, your worth so much more ;-)
You can add me if you like ;-)0 -
Congrats! Getting started is the hardest part. I'm almost at the end of my journey and it feels great. You just need to go one day at a time. Looking at the long term might be a little daunting but if you start off just working one day at a time, you'll be just fine!0

Thanks everyone who commented and or added me and who accepted my request! Ur stories are so inspiring to me super excited to get more of this weight off I am down 20lbs so that's a small step of what I have to lose! I have decided that taking small steps at a time is not as stressful as looking at the BIG picture! I can't "weight" to share my before and after photos! Anyway thanks again and I wish u all good health and happiness!!0

You can definitely do this! If any one had told me 3 months ago I'd learn to love to exercise and eat right I'd have laughed in their face! But now that I've lost almost 25lbs I feel so much better that I actually look forward to both. You can do this!!0

Kudoos to you Melissa! You have taken the first step.
I am right behind you with needing to lose about 80lbs! I am 52 so I know it will be harder to get off..but I know I can do it and so can you!

You can do this! I have over 100 lbs to lose, too. So far, I've lost 26. One step at a time. Sending you a friend request.0

Welcome Melissa, I'm with you...no excuses. It's definitely harder to do this at 53 but I will! At my highest two years ago I weighed 248. After being diagnosed as type 2 I got down to 205. I gained some back and started this year at 230. I joined MFP at 226 and have lost 5 lbs. We can do this and this site is the place to start, Very supportive and motivating. Please feel free to add me. And good luck on your journey.0
