I bet there's been a lot of members joining in the past three days, and I'm one of them!
I'm 28, 5'3, mum to a toddler and eager to get back into shape.
My goal is to lose 30lbs and get fit and toned by eating healthy and exercising. I used to love yoga so will be taking it up again and I'd like to start jogging... somehow!
Hey Sara, I just joined myself and was looking for people to compare notes with. I'm 20, 5'7 and need to lose about 15lbs and get toned up before I graduate university in June!
Even I love yoga, took classes over the summer (have gained a lot of what I had lost already ), and have always wanted to take up jogging but never thought I had the stamina for it.
Let me know what your plans are.
Hi Sara!
Yes, it's a fun time of the year with all the new members joining - sounds like you're ready to get going with a good plan and realistic goals - the support you need is here - we'll all be here to cheer you on.
Glad to have you join us! There are lots & lots of different groups and forums - I'm sure you'll find some that will keep you motivated and inspired - you'll be a wonderful addition to any of them. There's also info and first hand advice on different eating plans and exercise to help get through the ups and downs.
There are bunches of people here with more to lose and some with less - the bottom line is that we all have to do it a day at a time. The good thing is that we'll have lots of company along the way.
I've only been here a few months myself, having NEVER been part of an online forum. What has been so eye-opening is how much it has helped me. Whenever I feel overwhelmed or defeated, I just log on and read some of the success stories, complete with their before & after photos - or read about others still dealing day to day with their challenges - and before I know it, the time has flown by and so have all the thoughts of going off track or giving up. It has made all the difference in my success so far.
So welcome - you 've found the right place - join in by inspiring us and being inspired!
Another New Year Newbie
