The first day of the rest of my life x

Hello everyone out there,

The sun is shining here in Bath and I am going out with a friend to Montecute House down Yeovil way for the day, I know from the forecast it will be warm out there.

What I have decided to do is ask my friend to take a photo of me today, then will have another photo taken in three months to see if I look any different, if my body shape has changed and if I look any slimmer. With your encouragement I know I can do it and want to reach a healthy weight and set myself a target for a healthy and happy heart and waist size below 32 inches as I am sure it is more than that being apple shaped.

Starting today, my goal from today is in 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months ask someone to take a photo of me; this time next year I want to be in a much better place and with your support and encouragement I know I can do it.

I have been reading so many motivational posts on here and there are some really lovely inspirational buddies out there, just need to join them and have fun on this really good forum, I am so glad I have come across it.

Will post again later on today.

That’s a great idea. 12 months of health living and running should produce quite staggering results. Enjoy that journey.

Good job coming to start this... slow and steady is the mantra, and sip lots of water daily. You’re going to surprise yourself a lot on this plan.

Wow, that sounds like plan 👍 📉✔

There could be a problem with your next photo though as 3 months time is Christmas day. I'd go for a day earlier before the pies and cake are served. 🤶🎉🍰🥂

Good luck and enjoy 😃😃😃
