Hey tona50!
I'm in the same boat!!!!
I lost 50 pounds for my wedding, four years ago
, and here is something that should motivate you... I gained the fifty back and then another thirty to top it off!
So good for you for stopping this now
If diet is not a problem for you
then you are already in a great place. In terms of working out...
I am NOT a runner by ANY stretch of the imagination BUT I got this free app on my BB (my husband later got it free on his iPhone), it's called Coach to 5K, and it's a 9 week program that coaches you through runnning 5K.
It's great! I love it! I'm in week 4 and I can see such a huge difference in my ability to run.
Not only that but you get a check mark at the end!!!!
(On my husbands phone, he gets badges) And even though it's the dumbest reason to be motivated, I love getting them!!!
There are other apps too - there's a pushup app, skipping app and all kids of different workout challenges that are free downloads. Try them! It's a good way to start with small goals.
Good Luck!
