I just want to wish you the best. It is great you want to get healthy. Small consistent steps will make a big difference. Take one day at a time and have patience.
I don't know if you watch Dr Oz, but last week several folks were on that lost over 100 lbs.
Also, the diet and maintenance group has more activity if you want to check it out. We have weekly weigh in and offer each other support. I, myself would like to lose 20 lbs. But, the amount doesn't matter, it is a struggle no matter what the number is.
My best to you.

I totally understand. Every day is a constant struggle. Some days I do really well with my food, water & exercise. Then there are days that I just want to eat bad & do no exercising.

Together we can do it!

Welcome to the group! I am very happy that you are here and that you are making changes in your eating and exercise habits. That is where we all have to start. I haven't been here as much as I would like to be lately but I am hoping to check in more often again. Hope you will too.
