Hi All. My name is Jenni. I started my health journey in May 2018. A combination of factors in my life meant that I got myself to the point where I couldn't walk to the end of my street without getting out of breath and my back really hurting. I had hit rock bottom. I knew I was eating myself to death, and for a while I…

I'm in! I've lost 78lbs since May, and want to make sure I continue to work on my health in the new year, and I LOVE challenges, they really motivate me. Will post my starting weight etc on Jan 1st :smile:

Hi there. There's a fab group on here called '100 + pounds with NO surgery' for people who have similar weight ranges to lose (I'm one of them). Its a really supportive friendly group :)

Before I started again, I got to the point where 5 minutes walking left me out of breath and tired. I walked two miles yesterday, so thinks are starting to get better. I think I might have to check out that Netflix programme, I'll take all the motivation I can get. Your loss is inspiring, you got this!

I think this is my life motto, haha.

It is indeed. My internet has been patchy, hence my absence here since my last post. That's sorted now, although it does seem kinda quiet in here. I hope everyone is doing well.
-
Well, thought I'd show my face after months of not checking in. I'm working on getting myself to a happier place again, starting a new job soon, and hoping to climb back on the wagon slowly but surely.

Just popping my head back in. I'm struggling with health issues right now, but I haven't forgotten about you all, and will be back soon to update our Italy walk.

Here. It seems to be getting quieter by the day....

I'm here again, nice to see you @sharondjs :)

I'm here.

I'm so sorry to hear that Cari, sending you some hugs xx
-
Back again. It's a bit quiet in here....
-
Also, has anyone seen @ObesityWarrior around? Not seen her much here lately, I hope she's well.

So, folks, we are at 289.6 miles - woot! That means we've walked all the way to Verona, and are at 40% of our total. Go Team!
-
Ok, a quick apology from me. I've been struggling with mental health issues lately, and not really checking in, or updating things. This is a bit rubbish, considering I set this whole thing up. I *will* be updating this later, I'm just about to add my steps on from the last week, and then I'll post where we've walked to.…

Hi folks. Sorry, I wandered off on my own for a while, but I'm back now. My Fitbit's been playing up, so I've been relying on an old school pedometer for a little while, but now I'm back tracking my steps properly. I'll get an update posted asap....
-
Sorry I've been AWOL lately, been feeling kinda low. Am back now, and will try to check in more often.
-
Blimey, well done Clarissa, that's awesome!
-
Well, sorry for the delay folks, but here is your week one update! Our small but happy team covered 87.36 miles this week, that's over 200,000 steps - woo hoo! :smiley: We've walked from Genoa to Asti. With beautiful architecture, exciting and interesting festivals, and lush vineyards, its the perfect place to stop for a…

Of course not, we're happy to have you with us :smile:

Checking in again. Got my exam results, and I scored 72%! I've no idea how I managed that! Well, ok, I worked my butt off over the last 9 months, but I'm ecstatic. Given how bumpy my last year has been, and that I've worked full-time all throughout my degree, I'm really pleased. Now, just another two years to go, and I'll…

I'll be posting the first update tomorrow, so make sure you've logged your activity folks. As we're only a small group this time around, it may take us a little longer to see the sites, but that's ok. We'll enjoy the stroll together :smile:
-
Ditto. I can just about manage the heat (if I prep for it), but the humidity is a real pain in the butt!
-
Back again!
