Congrats on your enrollment! That's the biggest step, and then actually going. Just realize that it is going to take some time to get into shape. If you are going to do cardio for example, start with just walking or lightly cycling. Push yourself harder to see what your limits are but don't feel bad if it's not much more than minimal effort. After a few weeks, increase the difficulty (speed, resistance/include, duration, etc). Just remember to keep pushing yourself to the point where you know you coullllllld keep going without it absolutely killing you but you just don't really want to. Push yourself past that point and keep going for just a little bit longer. Over time, that point will be higher and higher and you'll realize you are no longer walking but jogging, no longer jogging but running, etc. Also try not to pay attention to other people in the gym unless you are like me and you turn it into a competition in your mind! lol
