Hey everyone!
I finally joined this forum even though I've been shyly lurking on it for some time now. There is a lot of nice advice on here and everyone seems so lovely.
A little bit about me... I'm 25 years old from NY, USA. My starting weight was 301, currently at 271, and one day going to get to 195. I previously went from 320 to 250, but then gained most of that back. It was really depressing, but now I'm back on track! No looking back! I'm hoping to lose 20lbs by Christmas to make it an even 50lbs lost for the year! But anywhere in the 250s by then will make me happy, and so far I'm on track for that!
I go to the gym 5 times a week at an hour each visit. I've started taking the classes that my gym is offering. I finally became brave enough to try spin classes and I love them. I finished my 5th one today! I also am trying total body workout classes and now find myself wondering if I'm walking normally whenever I go anywhere (muscle soreness!). It makes me laugh, though.
I guess my biggest problem is the dieting portion. I'm an extremely picky eater, and I'm trying to get myself out of that... but it's hard. I would actually really love some healthy recipe ideas to help me break into new things!
Anyway! I'm eager to get to know more of you and get more involved in the forum.
