Starting Again...

Hi everyone,
I want to start by saying that just by reading some of your stores and encouragement, it's been such an inspiration! Thank you!
Hopefully this will be the last time I start this fitness kick. I want to change my life and make a healthy diet and exercise part of my every day life now. I've been overweight for a few years now, not hugely so, but enough to give me a prominent muffin top and thighs that stop me from wearing above the knee skirts and dresses. I've always put it to one side and told myself that I should love my body no matter what. But I know that I've been unhappy and comfort eating to hide the pain. I've been getting little or no exercise and making no effort to be active. It's stopping me from socialising with my friends and from doing relatively normal things like shopping for clothes.
It's time for me to make a huge change and the biggest motivation I've been given is the fact that my sister has asked me to be her Maid of Honour at her wedding in 13 months. I'm determined to look and feel amazing by then.
I know I can't do this on my own and the fact that there's this amazing community of people just as determined as me...it helps a lot.
So here's to an amazing 2013!
