Tabitha-Just Getting started

Options
Hi everyone!! I am Tabitha and just getting stated today. Everyone says that you must be very serious about losing weight and getting healthy before you will ever be successful. Well about a week ago this happened to me, I woke up one morning and realized I hated everything about my body, I have been overweight for a while and just made excuses. I dread getting dressed in the mornings because nothing fits or looks right. So here I am, making a change in my life. FOR GOOD! I have 75 pounds to lose. I am very eager to get started. So please leave your tips or comments, I can use them!! thanks!!!

    My biggest tip is to remember that this is a marathon, not a sprint. Healthy weight loss takes time. There are lots of people on this site that will support you on your journey, give you tons of encouragement and helpful hints as you go along. We are young and old, short and tall, from the U.S. and other points around the world. Goos luck, and feel free to add me as a friend.
