Hey everyone. I am very excited to begin this journey. I believe iron sharpens iron, so I am open to the motivation and support. I hope to be a success story and do the same for others. I hate the outdoors but I am trying to become more open minded and live a more active lifestyle. A year from now I want to run a marathon or go canoeing or hiking. I'm laughing at the thought. Let the journey begin.

    You sound much like me. I started this and I only wanted to lose weight... maybe walk the treadmill a couple of days a week. Then I started being able to move better and feeling better and I thought maybe I would add some strength training. I started doing some classes. Pretty soon, I got talked into a 5K. Then I did INSANITY, then another 5K and then I added outdoor bootcamp styyle classes, and then another 5K... and well, you get the point! It becomes a part of you after awhile and you will just keep going. Do not laugh at the thought - embrace it and work toward it!

    I wish you much success in your weight loss!
