Here I go... again
Hello, I'm new here. I've made the decision of changing my lifestyle, in terms of what I eat and what I do. I have just given up smoking, which is proving not to be easy. I began last week, by trying to eat healthier foods, and then a friend doctor gave me a food plan, so I am hoping I will stick to it.
I guess the next step will be excercise... however I don't really think i can handle all these changes at once! I have been promising myself I will be fit by my (oooohhh... scary...) 40th bday! and I swear, I'm fed up with breaking my own promises...
I've felt overweight all my life, although actually I was not overweight when I was young(er ha!). But now I am, and I'm scared I will spend the rest of my life feeling uncomfortable about myself and then one day I will just regret that I never did anything about it.
I know it's up to me, it's my decision, it's my struggle. But I also know women can lend very strong helping hands, so please, lend me yours and wish me luck!

Glad to have you here! Good for you for gaining control of your eating habits and exercise. It's scariest at first, but you'll get over the overwhelmingness of it all. For exercise it can be easy to start with smaller steps, maybe some walking or invest in a few workout DVDs. Check out the exercise forum here on 3fc, there are a few sub topics that you might find very helpful. 
We're glad to have you here!
