  • I feel so proud of myself right now. I went out walking for the first time today in five months.
    It was 4 tenths of a mile but i still did it. I said yesterday that i was going to start excersising again and i did it. Yeah!
    Now i just have to watch what i eat. This is not going to be easy but i know it's worth it.
  • Yeah!!!! For me getting started is 3/4s of the battle
  • I'm in the wrong group here, but congratulations! Be proud of your achievement - a lot of us here will find an excuse to not get out and exercise today... but not you!
  • Way to go, Blueice!

    The first step is so important. Be proud!
  • Thank you everyone for the words of encouragement. They are much needed and much appreciatiated. I do feel proud. In fact I feel like going for another walk now. I will be back later, hotter and sweatier.
    Again thanks. It feels great moving again. And thankfully I am not back up to 247 again.
  • Keep it up you are doing great! Every little bit helps
  • Congratulations!! Getting started is a great acomplishment. Keep up the good work!!
  • Wtg!
  • You can do it!!
  • Congrats! It is soooo hard to make the time to go that first time. Keep up the good work!
  • Alright! Actually going and doing it is the hardest part. :-)
  • You have taken the most important step: the first one. I always sing Dorie's song from Finding Nemo to myself in cases like this. "Just keep swimming, just keep swimming..."
  • Just take it slow and easy...way to go...
  • Yay! That's awesome!
  • Way to go,
