The best thing that you can take advantage of is support! Without it I would have been lost
When I am starting to feel a wee bit lazy, I think to myself "now wait on ... you've seen grrrrreat results from just 3 months, don't you wanna see how good you look in six months? A year?! Multiply 16 pounds by 4 and that puts me at goal in just 9 months time all going to plan ....
And yes, just jumping in and doing some exercise definitely helps!!
