    The best way to start is by taking small steps towards being healthy. Like subbing a granola/protein bar for that donut in the morning as far as diet goes, and as far as exercising just start with leisurely walks! You can do it!

    I think you made a really good first step, you joined MyFitnessPal! Good for you! I know it's scary when you first begin but you are going to do great. Just start small. Walking is great exercise. My husband started a few weeks ago and he has already doubled his time and speed. Also, eating healthy is pretty simple, too. Just remember to eat small amounts of fresh fruits, lean meat, and lots of veggies. Now, some people mess with carbs and all that but you don't have to get into the science of healthy eating right away. Just stay within the guidelines that MFP has set for you and log everything you eat and do. Good luck on your journey!!
