Hi everyone. I'm a newbie here, literally just joined. I'm 23 and currently weigh about 20st. I decided just like MrsLisaMarie that 2013 would be my year. I only started on 1/1/2013 which of course isn't long and having tried to diet so many times and given up in the first week. I was petrified but still felt so determined. I used to drink 4-5 litres of diet coke per take and have take away/fast food every evening and never ever do any excercise or much general movement. Yesterday morning i went walking for the first time and wasn't able to walk more than 10mins before my legs were cramping and i was breathless. I came home and burst into tears. I felt incredibly down and disappointed in myself for not being able to do more and almost gave up feeling like it would be pointless and it would never work. I than came across this website and particularly this thread and all i can say to MrsLisaMarie and all the other members is a huge "THANK YOU". Reading through these stories and seeing how brilliant ye have all done has really inspired me and perked me up. I'm going walking again this evening and hoping to join my local weight watchers tomorrow. I know it will be incredibly hard work but like i said ye are all so inspirational to me. I'm going to chart my progress on this site from now on and i hope this will keep me accountable. So sorry for the huge post just wanted to get that off my chest and to say thank you and congratulations on all the progress ye have made so far. xXx
