Got to get this weight off!
 

I've always struggled but now I'm at my heaviest and I hate it! I have started making some great changes this past month. I have started walking every day and when I first started, I could barely walk a mile. I even had to keep stopping to catch my breath. Now I'm up to walking four miles comfortably most days. I usually average about 5 days a week. Now I'm trying to get my diet in check. Thought I'd need some extra support so I found this site. I've been on others before that aren't very active and so I thought I'd give this one a try. My diet of choice is low carbing. About 10 years ago, I discovered the low carb life style and lost about 50 lbs. at that time. I'm convinced it's the only thing that really works for me. I do carry alot of weight in my belly and have looked into other plans but I actually do best, when I'm just incorporating ideas from different plans and pretty much do my own thing. I try to stay at no more than 45 carbs a day and I'm trying to stick to more of a whole foods diet (no processed). Well, I guess I went on enough. It's good to be here!:)

Thanks so much Michelle! Just looked at your pictures and what an inspiration! Sometimes It feels like it's going to take forever to see progress but I know I just need to keep plugging away.

Thank you!

Yep, never give up :D

Way to go Sharyn! 4 miles is great! I'm still topping out at 2 miles in my hilly neighborhood.

Welcome
 

Welcome Sharon, good luck with your weight loss. There is so much inspiration here, I am sure you can do it!

Well, I think the hills make all the difference on what you can do. At the park I usually walk, four miles is a real challenge but sometimes we go to this other place where the trail is all flat and I feel like it is easy and I could do more.

:welcome:

Thanks everyone! I'm going to try to check in every morning. I think this will help me stay motivated for the day.

That's a great idea :) You should join up with some of our groups and utilize the accountabilty threads, they help :D
