Hi Everybody ( I said that like the fake doctor from the simpsons. lol)
So I finally realized it was time to lose weight. I have always been a big girl and never really felt that way. About a month ago, I just starting feeling the weight that I am. I didn't want to go anywhere cause it started getting harder for me to breathe. Like right now I can hear myself and I am like omgosh shut up. I sound like I just walked up a flight of stairs. So I just thought I'd try something I really don't do and that's ask for support ad really be held accountable. So I hope to continue on a new life changing journey and that you'll go along with me. It's funny cause I used to only eat once a day and now I'm freakin starvin like every five minutes and crave everything. Even spaghetti and I HATE SPAGHETTI.
 
Welcome. I have been a slacker lately and havent been posting but there are a ton on wonderful people on this forum that will be able to help you on your journey. Awesome that you are ready to get healthy! You go girl! Now spend some time reading others posts. Get an idea of what you should eat and how much exercise you should be doing at your fitness level. Walking right now would be good. Watch your portions and eat all your calories for the day. Dont skip meals! Good Luck and you can do this! Do not give up this is your life and you have the power to do anything...

Welcome Drea,as you have decided to take some action and get healthy that itself is a good decision that you should be proud of girl :),Read the stickied threads and start some light exercise like walking for say 20 minutes- 30 minutes, or as you feel comfortable,slowly increase the duration and avoid junk foods,eat lot of veggies and fruits and make better choices while eating....you can do it girl!:hurray:
 
Hi Drea! I am new to this also.. I totally understand that is why I joined also so I can get extra support in this weight lose journey. Well good luck, stay focused and remember you can do anything if you put your heart and mind into it.. I am telling myself the same.
 
Hi Drea. I said in another post that determination is a big key to getting started. Determination and motivation are factors that get me going. I need both, and getting them here at this forum is wonderful.
