So I have decided I have had enough and I'm so sick and tired of being sick and tired. Monday I am completely going to try and change my life before I no longer have one to live.

    Congratulations on your decision to get healthy!

    When I made mine, I was worried I wouldn't stick to it. But if your main desire is to feel more energetic & happier... I found that when I added about 30 minutes of physical activity & stayed away from junk food.... that energetic & happy feeling started at about 5lbs.

    Nope. Not kidding. Woke up in the morning feeling like I'd slept better. I felt more alert all day at work. I didn't get bored & distracted as much/as easily. I didn't get as tired mid-day as I used to. I stopped feeling like I could have a nap before dinner after getting home from work.

    That was me.... Moving from 175lbs to about 170lbs. Now I'm down to 147lbs, & I will NEVER look back.

    Good luck on your journey. This is a great place to make one!

    You can do it, it is a lifestyle change that is forever! Find things you like to do to keep you moving and there is so much GOOD food out there that you should never be hungry, if you make the right choices. skinnytaste.com is a great place to start. Everything I have ever cooked from that site is fantastic!
    Congrats, you can do this and will do it. No better time to start than now. Read the forums, they are a lot of help. Get friends, we are all in this together. Learn what works for you and guaranteed, something will work for you. You just have to want it and you are here so that is the first step. NEVER, EVER give up on yourself.
