Hello out there!!! I'm new to 3FC and am so excited to find a website/forum to help encourage and motivate me to lose weight and become healthy. I can't wait to see a NEW healthier ME!!!
Over the past 4 years I have let my weight balloon out of control from 165 lbs to 232 lbs. I recently realized I have to do something about it while I still can. I started Jan 6th reducing portions and watching what I ate. After 4 weeks of doing this, no results in weight loss. However, I could tell a difference in my clothes (measured hips, bust, thigh), although not much. This past weekend Feb 1st, I went out and bought a treadmill. I walked 1 1/2 miles Feb 1st, and walked 2 miles Feb 2nd. I am still watching what I eat, but I think the cardio workout on the treadmill is going to make the difference.
Is there anyone out there in similar situation? Can you give me some advice? I'm desperate to loose at least 30-40 lbs by August 1st. Is this even possible? I'm quitting my job and moving back to Mississippi (hometown), and want to lose a portion of the weight I've gained since I moved here to Arkansas. I really wish I could lose all the weight I've gained since I moved here, but that is 62 lbs and probably wouldn't be healthy.
Any and all suggestions will be helpful...I'm determined to lose weight/inches the right way!!!
