Well, the title says it all. I've been reading here for a few months and I feel like its time I say HI and start participating so I can be more accountable.

I've got quite a lot of weight to lose and I'm determined to do it this time. I've set some goals to help me stay the course, the biggest one is that I'm going to do a triathlon in December! I'm excited but know I have some serious work to put in.

I also want to get more serious about my riding and frankly the extra weight is too much of a hindrance right now so that's another motivator. I expect my horse to be an athlete so why should I not expect the same for myself?

I started seeing a personal trainer a few weeks ago and thats been awesome so far! I'm also trying to do some form of run/swim/bike 5-6 times a week too.

I'm totally impressed. The only thing I can do 5-6 times a week is sleep. With that much exercise you're bound to succeed!! This sounds like promotion but totally try south beach. It's the easiest "diet" I've ever done because I don't have to measure my food by the teaspoonful.

Cheesy advice: Don't worry about the final number, worry about the next one pound. Each one is a total win.

Thanks everyone!

Riotactress, thanks for the recommendation...I had kinda been calorie counting but sometimes its tough to know if I'm being totally accurate. My sis in law lost a lot of weight with south beach a couple of years ago.

Thanks,
Robyn

Welcome, glad to have you join us.

Welcome! Good to see another horse lover and rider here!

I currently don't have a horse for the first time in my life, but looking for another one!

Hugs and support on your weight loss journey

Welcome & Good Luck!

Thanks again for all the welcomes!

Janelle, good luck on your horse search! I love my boy, I've had him since right after he turned 3 and he's coming 14 this year! Where did the years go?
