Red face Looking for motivation for a beginner

Hi to all,
I'm 38 and overweight at the mo, at 76 kilos which I think is roughly 167 lbs?
Started off well, but finding it tough, looking for a bit of inspiration from fellow beginners,, otherwise help and all advise is welcome.
Louise

Hi! I was about 77 kilos when I started. I'm at 67 kilos right now and I'm still moving in the right direction.

You can too!

Keep posting and letting us know your progress :-)

Girl hang in there! You are on the right track! I had to drop by this post, as I too have been overweight and trust me, If I can do it, U can do it! I lost 30 pds over the past 2 years and transformed myself to a much healthier and happier person. Always keep in mind that you can accomplish anything as long as your heart is in it! Do you have a workout buddy/partner/spouse that can come a long side of you to support you? Do you have access to a personal trainer?

BELIEVE in yourself! You already made it to bb.com, so you are on the right track. Stay the course, even though results may not be coming as fast as you would like, or you are depressed because you are still unhappy with what you see in the mirror or feel in your clothes. "Beauty is fleeting, but wisdom is divine" girl. If I can help you in anyway, let me know. Thanks for reaching out for support.

U CAN DO THIS!!!
