But this time I mean it!! I had a shift in something this weekend and I'm ready to do this thing! Five years ago I had a really horrible open heart surgery. Since then, I've had several more surgeries to fix hernias along my twelve-inch incision. It's been a rough go and I hit 190 lbs earlier this year. And I'm 5'2 1/2" so no good!! But I'm ready to take my life back and could use some encouragement and inspiration.

Who's with me??

    Wow! You have had some challenges in your life. It is wonderful that you are ready to take control of your health and fitness.

    Just remember this is a marathon not a sprint. Slow and steady.

    You can do this but as frksfrau says it takes time! Good luck!

    Welcome back! I just started... again, too!

    Keep your motivation out in front of you every day, stay consistent and be persistent and you'll do great! πŸ™‚

    I'm getting started again too! I know that progress can be made but it does take time & just need to stick with it.
