I am new to this forum but I am ready to share my weight loss process as I begin it. I am ready to be fit for the summer and enjoy living in my body. A healthier and happier me is most important, losing weight isn't about what others think of me, but more of what I think of myself.

2. Walked to work, 3 kms, no gym, got a ride home = 3 kms
3. 6 kms walking, 5 kms elliptical = 11 kms
4. 6 kms walking, 5 kms elliptical = 11 kms
5. Just 3 kms from last night, raining today so I took the bus to work and skipped the gym
6. Slipped and fell on my coccyx yesterday, looks like no walking for a few days.
7. I managed to slow walk 4 kms, but it hurt!
8. Shabbat -- rainy and giving my sore coccyx a rest.

This makes 32 kms so far.
