Getting geared up for what will likely be a year long project - getting back down to a healthy weight! I was going to wait until January 1st, but decided I'd give myself a five week headstart!
Meals are planned, groceries are bought, workout gear is laid out. Let's gooooo...

Awesome.
I know how daunting a large weight loss can feel (lost 9 kg, have another 18 to go to highest normal weight). It is great you decided to start tomorrow instead of in over a month. - And I understand why you want to start on a new day, too.0 -
It's not 70lbs its 1 lb. That's all you focus on. 1lb at a time. 70lb can make it seem like it will never end. 1lb is totally doable and those 1lbs add up to 70. I started at 76 to loose. I have 16 left by taking it one 1lb at a time.8

Luckily for you, sounds like your mind is set... probs it to yourself. The results will take time... Rome wasn’t built in a day!
All the best with the fitness venture

gewel321 - you are so right.
I was saying the same thing to a friend today - look at the small numbers and before you know it, you will be amazed at how the numbers have increased

Best wishes on your goal!! 70 sounds like a daunting task, but break it up and take all the time you need to do this and be healthy.1
