Hi all! Me in a nutshell and I can't wait to lose all this weight!
 
Hi everyone!
I hope to gain to some great support and tips to keep me on my weight loss goal.
I have about 65lbs to lose. I honestly just keep packing on 10-12 lbs a year. UGH!!! I'm so disgusted I even let myself get to 198! The smallest I ever was 135 and I miss it! So that is my goal weight!

Right now I am eating small meals, cutting out all the bad "white stuff" and other bad carbs. I'm cutting out as much red meat as I can too. Lots of veggies and some fruit.

I am going to join the gym and work out at least 4 days a week on top of the classes. Right now I do ZUMBA class 2-3 days a week which I absolutely love by the way!!! By far the best workout I have ever done!!! I went to my first class and came home so sore I could barely even walk up and down the steps or sit for 3 days! LOL! My abs and especially thighs, hips and butt were so worked from that class! So right then, I knew this workout was it!!! If you haven't tried it! DO it!!!! You will love the high energy and music! I can't say enough about it...

I wish you all success! I know if we want it bad enough, we will do it!!! :D

Hi there!

Also a newbie...and YES! Have done Zumba quite a bit and it is soooooo much fun, I leave class feeling quite 'sassy' ;) My favorite instructor changed locations so I moved onto other things, but have thought about going back!...Great workout.

Good luck with your weight loss journey!...You CAN do this, baby steps! ;)

I am happy you are on the right track with the exercise and eating habits! You will get there!!! I am new to and I have to take it day by day... I am not sure what it is about exercise but I loath it... Cheers!

It sounds like you are on the right track to me. Cutting out the "white stuff" was a huge thing for me as I love bread, rice, pasta and potatoes. Eating lots of fruits, vegetables, cheese, eggs, nuts and meat seemed to be the key when I was losing weight.......even red meat! You will get there, keep up the good work and reward yourself for small goals along the way, it really helps to keep you focused :)

Hi and welcome ! I'm new too.

I know that you might feel that you want to lose this weight, but please don't think that you have ever been 'disgusting' ! All of us here may have given into temptations, but that doesn't mean we aren't goddesses inside ! I found that working on my self esteem over the past few years has had a big impact on my ability to lose weight (and in the main, keep it off).

All of us are beautiful and I think we all kick ourselves too much. Try imagining yourself as your best friend and think about what good things she would have to say about you ! We are never as cruel to others as we are to ourselves.

Keep positive and good luck !

Welcome! I hope you find the support you need.

I have seen Zumba. I have no rythem. Never been able to dance. But, everyone seems to love it. Maybe you will entice me into trying it!
