Well I have been lurking for about two weeks and have decided I can't lose weight by just reading your stories, trust me I tried. I am 38 and have one daughter and two step kids, work a full time job and part time on weekends. With all this you would think I could lose some weight. I am only 5'4 and weigh 275. I bought the walk away the pounds dvd and just got it yesterday. I hate hate hate to exercise so this is my big hurdle. I have decided to start my program on Monday, eating right and exercising 4 days a week even if it kills me. My 10 year old did the 1 mile walk and said it was easy. I guess by the look on my face she realized I was scared and she said Mom you can totally do this. I am hoping to really do it this time and hope to find and give incouragement on this board. How did you guys get those cute little tickers on your messages? Well let's give this a try and see what happens. Thanks for letting me in this group. Cocchi

You are so funny. Believe it or not I DID IT!!! Now don't get excited I only did 1/2 mile. But at least I did something. I felt really good and went right to bed after. So today I have class at 6:00 so that gives me 45 mins to do some form of exercise. I think I will just do the other half of the walk tape. If you promise to bike I promise to do the other half of the tape. Sorry to hear about the partial destruction thing, but it wouldn't be life is something didn't go wrong. We can do this!! Thanks for the encouragement. Mimi

Mary, Good for you. I knew you could do it. Yes,I did the other half of the dvd. I must admit it wasn't that hard I should have started over from the beginning. I will do it again tonight. I have broken my personal best by exercising 2 days in a row. Let me know if you can do it. Mimi
