Thank you so much. I have kept pushing through. Small victory...my half mile was 3 minutes shorter yesterday. I'm improving after 4 days! Congrats on all your successes! I hope one day ill be able to share mine as well! ❤️

I've just started and maybe this will slow down some? But one thing I've noticed is that food is CONSTANTLY on my mind. I'm trying to plan all day for eating and exercising. Hoping one day, chosing the right things will become habit!

I just had the exact same realization!

Thank you so much. You're right! I can't believe the support I recieved! So today, I got up and went to the Gym and had a decent work out! One that I was proud of!

I'm new at this too but I was told Carbs before and protein after by a couple of people at the gym. I go early so I eat my overnight oats an hour before I hit the gym.

Congratulations!! That's a great success story and makes me want to do well on my journey! Thanks so much for your kindness and encouragement!!

Thanks so much for your encouragement!! ❤️

I think I'm going to stick with counting my calories. I enjoy my overnight oats and brown rice and FRUIT. LOL. As long as I'm seeing results....I'm gonna keep on with what I'm doing. Thanks so much for your input!

That's very true. I have already started and am doing low cal. I watch my carb intake but still eat brown rice, oatmeal, and fruit. Nothing refined or white. I'm just wondering if one works better than the other for extreme amounts of weight to lose? Thank you!!

Thank you. Right now I am doing low cal and I eat brown rice, overnight oats and berries but no refined breads or sugars. So I'm lower carb than ever but still don't fit into the keto or even low carb category. I eat between 50-70 carbs per day. My calorie intake has been around the 1200 mark. Give or take 200! 3 lbs per…

I have just started this journey but my intention is to hit the gym with purposeful e exercise 3xs per week and go kayaking etc a couple times per week. It seems "do-able" and I don't want to burn out!

I seriously over weight but I do not let that stop me from kayaking! It's so peaceful! That is beautiful!

I'm so overwhelmed at all the support and encouragement that you all have given me!! From the bottom of my heart ....Thank You!! I'm starting my day and heading to the gym to do the elliptical (for as long as I can). I'm not going to set a goal except as far as I can so I won't be disappointed! You all are so right. I…

That's amazing!! Seems so far away but ik it just takes determination!! Congratulations on your amazing achievements and thanks so much for the encouragement!

I already bought new shoes. It's one ankle and it's from an old injury. Thank you 😊

That's a complete truth. I would encourage anyone else! I need to change the voice in my head! Thank you so much!

That's actually a great idea! To give myself a month to do it more comfortably! Thank you!

That's what my goal is. I guess I just didn't realize how far away I was until that walk. I know that every journey begins with a single step so im not giving up. I'm gonna push! I never want to look back from this point!

I'm gonna keep working hard because this post makes me excited. I truly hope I can accomplish all that you have! Congratulations and thank so much for your kindness!

Thank you!!

That's awesome!! I sincerely hope I can be as motivated and determined as you!! Congratulations on your success!! It's very inspiring to hear!

You're right!! I know I have to change my mindset! Thank you!

Those reasons are mine as well. My twins are 14...I want to be able to enjoy the last few years I have them at home with me. They are pushing me too! Thank you so much for your encouragement!

I guess I expected too much from myself since I'm just starting. I'm gonna keep pushing! Thank you!

Thank so much for your support and motivation!! I know that you're right, I just have to change my mindset!!

You're right. I guess when it comes to my weight, I need an attitude adjustment. Thanks for your kind words!

Thanks so much for the encouragement! I truly need it today. I only started 2 days ago but had no idea how out of shape I am! Congratulations on your success! I hope to be sharing mine one day!

I'm going to the gym tomorrow. I have a partner to keep me accountable. I don't want to give up at all. I was just shocked. I had every intention of walking that mile! Thanks so much for your advice and encouragement!
