Another post to encourage those of you who are just getting started. I'm 5'4", 48 yrs old, and started in January at 171lb. The first milestone I set myself was to reach 145lb by Easter, and I hit that a few days ago. (Hooray!) My next goal is 130lb by the start of August, and then I'll see how I feel.
So it's totally achievable - I've been a lazy couch potato all my life, but have not felt hungry at all, and have discovered a real pleasure in weight training and being more active. If I can do it, and not find it a chore or a burden, even enjoy the process, then so can you. Be patient yet determined, eat well but not too much, take every chance you can to be active, and you will get where you want to be.
Good luck!0 -
