      Be stronger than the quit. Motivation will come and go, you have to decide that you are determined and get it done. You can do it.

      Jackie, good day and welcome...

      A good place to start is to fill in a little about your self in the profile. This will help you focus on what you want to achieve and more importantly, why.

      Hopefully those things that caused you to stop are not well behind you and you can push on with your goals.

      As above, don't give in. You may have a few bad days but as long as there are more and more good days, you are going in the right direction. And if you find it going the other way, sit down and have a look at why and then fix it.

      Thanks everyone I am very determined to do this. Im just having the problem of where to start as in working out. Any suggestions on that? I am eating way healthier then ever no soda and no junk food. But I'm lost when it comes be workouts. I see so many different types I just don't know how to determine which ones are right for me. I love dancing and boxing. I did but a policing workout video yesterday. Also how do I determine which is best for me to workout mornings or nights? TIA.....

      You'll know the best timing and work out when you find something that you will stick to. Morning or night is all personal preference. Do you like the gym atmosphere or will you be working out just at home, group classes?

      Right now I'm going to start at home and at the park doing some running. I do wanna start back working out at a gym eventually. But I wanna make myself feel better before I jump right into the gym again.
