I am new and nervous
 

Hello, I have been lurking around in the shadows for a bit and reading. I find it very supportive. I am looking to lose a lot of weight. I had a gastric bypass in 99 and lost 100 lbs but have put back on 32 lbs since then. I need to get that off and then some. Anyhow, thanks for listening to me ramble a bit.

Feeling very anxious since this is going to be my first exercise day of walking. I have got to start some where.

:bravo: :goodluck: :welcome2:

Welcome, Good Luck with the Walk :running: . Make sure you take it slow, listen to your body and lets us know how it goes.:carrot:

hi
 

Hi. I hope your first day of walking went well. Walking is so important. Since January 1 my goal has been to walk at least 6 days per week. I would like to walk everyday, but when I have night class in graduate school there just isn't the time on those days. So, since January 1 I have walked 23 out of 25 days so I don't think that's too bad. It was hard at first, but it is geting easier. I usually walk for about 25 minutes which is 1.2 miles.

Hi Melody:
I'm here in MS as well. Congrats on your loss! Much to be proud of.
This is my first day and I'm already enjoying all this site has to offer.
Nice to meet you!
