Hello and Intro
 
Hello Everyone,

I signed up a year or so back posted an intro and didn't do one thing as usual.

My name is Jan and I live in KY. I am full time working wife and mother. I have 3 kids. Two daughters on their own and a 15 yo son who just started high school.

I am 44 years old and about 60 to 75 pounds overweight. My problems is I get really motivated for a week or so then I just quit. I am needing a program that I can start slowly. I am a person who cannot make major changes overnight. I need to ease into things. I need to either start with a food plan first or an exercise plan. I am thinking exercise first because I am always out of breathe just walking to and from my car at work. Walking up one flight of stairs or even cleaning house. My knees are starting to hurt more.

I really would like suggestions or what others have to done to get started. My other problem is I don't really have a good support group. My husband and son are not the most encouraging people. At the same time my weight is not an issue with my husband.

I look forward to meeting and getting support here.
Jan

Welcome, glad to have you join us. I suggest you look for a Support Group or Challenge to join; a small group of friends to help keep you motivated, find one that inspires you or fits your needs, and just post to join.
