After 3 years of stress eating and adding 85 pounds I'm finally getting back on track. Ive lost 26 pounds so far, but seem to be at a stand still. Today I'm going to start walking and really track what goes into my body. Going to get the real me back! Excited!

    Congrats on taking the next step (literally and figuratively)!

    I know a lot of people starting out walking are doing the C25K program. I haven't done it, but everyone I've seen who has loved it and had great results. http://www.c25k.com/

    Me personally, I've been working with a trainer who taught me intervals on the treadmill. All my cardio problems I've had since a kid were gone! Now I'm walking/jogging a 5K every weekend to develop a habit of it.

    If you're interested in some extra motivation and to track your progress, I have a group made up for walkers and runners. I labeled it for 5K participants, but really it's just for anyone that uses walking or running as part of their exercise routine. You're welcome to join if you'd like. http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/114532-5k-walkers-and-runners
