One of these things is not like the other........

That's how I feel when I go to any type of workout classes or the gym, BUT, I make it there regardless.
New girl here!! I've heard great things about this website, so I thought I'd try it out. I started my "new life" so to say on January 7th, and I'm doing okay so far. Still dedicated, much to my surprise. I set small goals for myself at first. Baby steps, right? But after reading some of the success stories from different people, all ages, sizes, etc., I've decided to make a reach goal for January 7th, 2014 - the same old Jennifer, same killer smile, 100 pounds lighter. Here's to making that happen!

Any encouragement, motivation, tips, etc. are welcomed and appreciated :)

    It is TOTALLY possible. I never thought I could lose 22 lbs in 3 months (OVER CHRISTMAS YET) but, so far that is what I've done. My first goal is to be down 60 more lbs by Aug. I believe it can be done... good luck and congrats on the decision to change your life! :drinker:
  • You can do it, utilize this site, and stick to it. EXERCISE, EXERCISE, EXERCISE. You can't do it without that....Have fun! and good luck!
  • I began my journey about the same time (the 8th for me) and I also want to lose at least 100 lbs. I have actually stuck to my exercise plan since then but just joined My Fitness Pal today and so going to get my diet in place too. Congrats on making this life changing step. I have vowed to make 2013 my fitness year and I wish the best for you too. I feel we can all do this and maybe we can just do it together.
  • Thanks for the encouragement!
  • Thanks everyone!
