Hello,
Just beginning.
First goal is lose 20 lbs. Then 80 more pounds.
A tough road ahead. Probably about two years or more will be needed.
Maybe the economy will turn around by then. Another challange - maybe tougher than weight loss.
I will see how it goes. A good success story would help.

    I like your steps to success. Very practical.

    The MFP is the place to be to progress onto a healthy lifestyle. The most encouraging and informational site I've been too. I love the tools, which I highly recommend, as they are a part of the learning process that increases your focusing more on effort.

    Watch the Community Tab for inspirational stories...there are many.

    Enjoy! :happy:

    Hi there - I'm doing it with you!

    I have plenty to lose too and am being realistic about the timescale, but this is a really good place to come for help. I've just joined in the last few days and am already finding it very supportive and inspirational; not to mention "safe".

    Good luck and lets see if we can be wearing at least one size smaller by summer eh?

    Flo
