I donated clothes that got too big.

You've started, for me that was the hardest part! You can add me for support if you like.

I went through the same thing when I hurt my back. I couldn't really do much of anything except easy walks. When I recovered I was glad to find I wanted to exercise again. My motivation didm't go anywhere.

We can all always use more friends. I am over 50 and sent you both requests.

Baby steps is exactly how I started. It is the best way to do this as far as I am concerned. It is the only way that works for me. I think motivation from friends is also a very good thing. I have sent a friend request. Anyone else can feel free to add me too.

Congrats!! You have done an amazing job! Keep it up!

Just take it one step at a time. If you try to do too much too fast it will not last! Log everything!! Make small changes you can live with, then make more small changes.You can do this!

Not laughing at all. Congratulations and good luck with your journey! You can do it!

I agree wth whole foods, cut out processed, junk and fast. Veggies, fruit, whole grains and protein. You can do this.

Used to live in Huntley, and Union........now in Wisconsin..........

I also have a digital $18.00 from walmart scale. It is a must for me. I use it constantly.

I would say the first step is to honestly log everything. Weigh everything and find yourself some supportive friends. This is a great site and most people I have run into are very helpful. Good luck with your journey. Feel free to add me if you would like. :smile:

One won't hurt. Just log it!

Hi, I have been on here a couple months, feel free to add me if you like.

I had done the same thing for years. This year I finally started very slowly taking baby steps with lots of time inbetween steps to get used to doing things differently. It took me a year to lose about 20 pounds.........very slow. Now I have gotten myself into the habit of eating right, watching portions and exercising. It…

Small steps is the best way. Feel free to add me.

I had/have about 90 to lose, send me a friend request if you want. I will to my best to help and I will definitely support!

Hi, I am also fairly new, about 7 weeks, I have lost 8 pounds so it hasn't been fast. I sent you a friend request, I believe the friends I have on made on this site have made all the difference in the world. Slow isn't a bad thing, if you lose slow it is more likely that it will stay off and that is important.
