Hi everyone!
I'm Tina, married to Chris for 14 years. We live in NY with our 2 boys (AJ & Kyle) & one in heaven (Tyler) watching over us. We also have 2 dogs & my sister-in-law just moved in with us.
For the last 2 months I have really kicked myself in gear to lose this weight. I started walking every morning & got up to 2.5 miles before the humidity became too much. Now I do what I can at home with dvd's & go to my parent's to use their bike & treadmill. My goal is to lose 200 pounds.
I belong to several other groups but I don't seem to find anyone that's serious & their excuses become my own. Before I know it I'm arguing with myself to knock it off.
I have just spent the last hour surfing around this site & I want sooooo much to be in the Goal section. I want to be someon'es inspiration.
I hope to make some great friends here!

Welcome Tina! Great job on your walking regimen!! Keep it going!! Good luck with your weight and fitness efforts! You can do this!

Welcome and good luck.

Hello! Nice mindset! I want to be an inspiration to others as well. You can do this!!

Welcome Tina! I'm sure you'll find great motivation here. This is a wonderful group of people!

Thanks everyone! I'm so excited...well maybe that's the wrong word LOL. I went in to update my fitday & realized my starting weight was more than I thought (not good) BUT then I realized since March I lost 23 pounds! Goooooo meeeee

Tina, that's wonderful! Sometimes we have to focus on the big picture - where you initially came from! Twenty-three pounds is a lot - that's three more pounds than my one year old. So, you've lost an entire one year old already!!!
