    Hi @salsera2523, I'm in the 30lb club too. I got serious about it 7 days ago with a lifestyle change. I haven't started the exercise portion yet but I'm on my way. Yesterday when I finally got on the scale I was 6lbs lighter, whoohoo! It's not a lot but it told me I'm on the right track. I've put the scale away for now and I'm using the mirror instead. That could take some time but I'm worth it. ;)

    The biggest thing is consistency, and the second biggest thing is not getting emotional about the process. What I mean is that if you get too emotional about it, you may get discouraged. Ultimately you want to go about your nutrition and fitness in the same consistent manner that you brush your teeth for instance. You don't get emotional about brushing your teeth but you do it consistently for good health reasons. I learned about this from a video from Jeff Cavaliere. Check it out and you'll understand what I'm getting at:
