Good luck, you can so do it.Just keep in mind how bad you want it and be balanced.

Hey thanks aras. I'll keep that in mind. I'll also try my best to keep everyone who is interested updated and I might even add pictures if the diet is apparently working.

Just ease into it. It's great that you have a starting date, that's exactly what I did when I quite smoking (3.5 months ago, woo hoo). Just don't plan to change your life completely in that first week.
Say 'ok, this week I'm going to do my best to eat a healthy breakfast every day and go to the gym for x minutes 3 times.' Use that as a starting point.
I know when I tried to 'turn my health around' initially, I didn't do all of the 85 things on my list and got discouraged.
You can do it, think of it like training for a marathon; you don't just go out your first day of running and go 26 miles! Build slowly and steadily, you'll get there!
Plus when you set goals like that, it feels really good to reach them

You know what I'm going take your tip Amazon. You're right about not overdoing myself in the first week and to take things more slowly in the first week.

Good for you! Have a steady plan in mind definitely helps and just think of little things that you can do everyday to help you lose those pounds. And don't worry, there's a lot of people out there trying to lose weight with you! (Like me!)

good luck!!! you can do it

Thanks mambo. Cute username!
