Thank you all so much for the comments - you have really cheered me up :)

Thanks for your replies, I appreciate that. I am usually such a strong person, I am a senior manager and come across to others as being very confident, yet inside when it comes to my weight and how I look, I am really not and this has thrown me. I will aim to hold my head up high and ignore what anyone else says or thinks.…

You have made the decision to turn your life around and so that is something to be so proud of... well done.... I have literally just started the C25K also and have just finished Week 1, Day 3. A colleague of mine has lost 6 stone (84lbs) by starting from nothing and now runs marathons and competes in triathlons. She gave…

Hi, I have Zumba 2 and Zumba Core on the Wii and also attend 3 classes per week - I absolutely love it. The great thing with the DVD's or games is that they show you how to learn each dance move from scratch so you can master them at your own pace before you pick a real live class to attend (if that's what you want to do).…

Gave birth to fabulous twin girls (6lb 10oz & 6lb 11oz) and devoted all my time to them and somewhat forgot about me. They are old enough now that I have put myself back in line with them and my husband rather than being way down the list. I need to be healthy and fit to be a good role model to them and to be around long…

I've lost 10lbs since Jan 1st. Sticking to 1200 calories plus exercising every day and eating my exercise calories too. I've a bit of a way to go, but really motivated now.

Wow, thank you for taking the time to write that. It is exactly what I needed to read and keep me motivated to accept this is a life change not just a "diet".

I too could not get my head around this concept; I was stuck for ages without losing so upped my calorie intake to offset the calories burned through exercise and have definitely kick started my loss again. Keep positive and give it a try......

I have Zumba 2 and absolutely love it!! As long as you are moving, it doesn't matter what you look like. I frighten my cats with my attempts at looking like a zumba pro!!!

What a relief to find other tall ladies (I'm 5'11") with similar issues to me. I was 252 and down 26 so far, but would like to get to 182. You are all really inspirational and I intend to keep going and take motivation from you guys. I can do this !! :smile:
