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.

@Scarecrowe 5 foot 10 1/2 here and size 18. I need to get to a size 14. When I was super fit I was a size 10 but that was crazy sh@t plus I am too old to be that super slim. I love bailys lol. Used to drink it as a teenager that and kaluha on the rocks.
