I went through a fad of being a heavy drinker the last two years and it really caught up to me. I am hoping to lose 20 lbs and hopefully see a difference in the stretchmarks Ive gained from this. I have never had a kid ,but my belly looks to say otherwise. I am 5'6 and I weigh 158 . I would like to ideally be 140 for starters and a the minimum 135 . I am just starting to be active again , so if anyone has any really good workouts at home that do not consist of buying videos it would be great. Also any affordable food receipes . I would like any advice for anything weight loss related. I attached my first "progress" pic below . :(

    You have a computer and internet - Why not try 30 Day Shred?

    Yay good for you. It's hard to take that first step. Don't feel bad about the stretch marks, everyone's skin is different - I got my first stretchmarks on my legs when I was 13 and had a growth spurt, and have been adding to my collection ever since :wink:

    I agree with the previous poster, Jillian Michels 30 day shred on youtube is really good, and most importantly it's free! Also the NHS (UK Health service) have a series of podcasts on iTunes which I think are free for anyone to download, they start at real beginners stuff and gradually increase intensity and difficulty. It's called Strength and Flexibility. If you're an absolute starter I would suggest trying this before 30 day shred. Or maybe just go for a 15 min walk each day as a starter.

    You can do this. We're all here to support you!
