The journey has begun. Today I joined a gym and bought some clothes to train in. I want to slim down and prevent the risk of type 2 diabetes. I thought I’d start a thread for my journey and start posting about the journey. Hopefully it will see an improvement in my mental health too due to all those feel good chemicals.
So, this is Day 1... I’m nervous but excited at the same time.

@Ant7 @Queenie @Meowmy @Gazza75 @Shaz51 @TAB okay like my girth is looking more and more like my name and is going out of countrol. I have to get fit and lose weight so I am going to drink water when I am hungry. Eat strictly healthy food with one day a week having Thai as a treat and walk most days. 😄
How is everyone else doing with their healthy living?

@Meowmy Hugs and hugs it is so depressing. How is your cooking going? You were always the best cook out of all of us.
I have bought all these bottles of spring water and have just now promised myself to drink loads wen I am hungry.
