Hey Everyone!

I have been wanted to tell my story, without telling my name. What better way than a weight loss board. At this point I don't want to share my name or face, but once I lose the weight, then I will proudly share full pics Just like anyone who actually knows me, knows I am trying to lose weight, but I will not tell them my actual weight until I hit a goal.


I have started the Leslie Sansone 'Walk at Home'. I am doing 1 mile a day so far. I don't have a "diet" yet, except to use better portion control.

Being overweight most of my life I hate it when someone, not only takes my picture, but posts it on a site like facebook, or myspace It makes me realize that, "damn I am fat." I know I need to do something about it, instead of just complaining about being obese. Hopefully starting to post my weight loss experience will help.



Good luck to everyone here and to me!!

good luck!! stay positive and keep focused and you will succeed! You've got to learn to love yourself the way you are now to continue to be happy with yourself on your journey! we are about the same size so i know how hard it is and how much i also hate to have my picture taken. But now i look at it like its something to compare to as i lose...so take your pictures...watch your progress...it WILL motivate you!

Welcome HP, I love the Leslie Sansone walk at home series! That lady can keep me moving. Doing a mile is great! She also has a book that is a good read. I'm aiming for around 1200 calories a day, trying to move my tush each day, drinking water and adding a few 'mini' weight sessions each day. Best of luck to you!

I am on the HMR but your idea of the walking is exactly the type of activity I am currently doing with the bad weather. I walk for 10 minutes three times a day over and above my normal activity. At the end of the day I have an extra 30 minutes in to my PA. It sounds as if you are going at it very smart. Hope to hear from you again.
