anyone else "starting" today??

I am! I was going to be all down on myself as I have gained a lot of weight in the last two months--mostly from not being able to manage my own stress but I am making positive changes and today I am going to start on my road towards getting into great shape again. I need to as I want to get pregnant next summer and will be over 40 and need to get this body in the best condiiton. So, today begins my personal journey, I've mapped out a good lower carb diet plan--joined fitday to track my progres--weigh in this morning was a little scary!!! Plotted exercise regime, I can realistically do at home--I can never get to a gym so Jillian Michaels and the bike are about to become close friends of mine and I hope I am on my way towards losing 30 pounds by the summer....anyone else starting today, looking forward to reading more on this board!

I hope so! I stopped doing anything when I got pregnant because of spotting. I had been running and walking with a neighbor. Now I have to get back into the walking. I know I can do a 30 minute walk but when you fall out of the routine, even that seems difficult to find the time. I need today to get me back on track.

i would like to try starting today. i attempted to start in mid december, did good for a week then fell off the wagon with the holidays and being off from work this entire week, needless to say whatever i did lose i gained back Chat Icon and possibly more because i'm terrified to get onto the scale. i am so disgusted with myself when i look at myself in the mirror and hate the way my clothes fit. i feel like i let myself go Chat Icon but i know i need to start somewhere. good luck to all on your resolutions!

DH and I started today! We made a big shopping list complete with calorie counts. As far as the diet part, we are strictly counting calories.

I don't know when I last weighed myself, but I know my jeans are getting snug Chat Icon Chat Icon

Starting tomorrow officially. I ordered P90X and I'm really excited to get started. I need to lose at least 15 pounds (probably 20) and I'd love to do it by my birthday in April.

Re: anyone else "starting" today??

I am also starting this week. (was going to start today but I have had an awful cold for weeks, so I have only been eating things that actually taste good.) DH & I have a wedding in June & then I am a bridesmaid in my cousins wedding in the fall. I would just like to feel great in my dresses.
My plan is to watch what I eat & limit my snacking & no more dessert.

I also will start using the treadmill regularly.
