You’re not starting late. You’re just in time, Quintella! You are a work in progress and you’re not alone. Great job taking action.

I’m glad you were able to post. And here’s the Week 1 update article on how and why imperfect action is always better than trying to be perfect. https://curvygoddessworkout.com/plus-size-fitness-journey-week-1-taking-action-over-perfection/

So I’m starting my journey this week. I wanted to start last week, but so much went on at work that I couldn’t get my plan together. One of my goals this week will be working on strength training. I will also work on my water intake, and assuring that I eat veggies daily. My issue is time management, especially making time to exercise and getting plenty of rest the way my schedule is between work and running errands.

I may be starting late but my goal for the next 15 weeks is to eat better or in my case, eat more and up my water intake. I’m struggling in those areas. I’m not a snacker of any kind and I only end up eating two meals a day but I make sure that my meals are protein focused and healthy. I brought a 50oz bottle to drink water and trying to drink 2 a day. I’ve only done that 3 times this week. It’s better than what I was drinking. I wasn’t even getting 32oz better. I’m a work in progres

In reply to Diane, Plus Size Personal Trainer. I have very small but important goals to start this week: Add fruit/vegetables to meals, Drink more water (No More Soda), Walk, Move!! These days, it is painful to walk, so doing stretching and Yoga exercises to help alleviate the pain.

In reply to Andrea Brown. I need concrete action steps from you. You've already acknowledges that you need help by commenting here. Now take ownership. Real ownership. Take action. What are you going to do this week to show yourself that you own your health and your fitness?

For me I am tired of starting over. I want to get off this merry go round. I need and want to get back on track with my lifestyle change because it is VITAL to my health. I had my gallbladder removed earlier this year. Two weeks after surgery in April, I was at 220lb, now I’m weighing in at 254lbs. I look and feel disgusted. My clothes don’t fit right & I just plain don’t feel good. I am always tired and and I lack motivation to do anything. I want to feel better. I need to take better care of myself, especially now that I have no gallbladder. So my rise for this week is acknowledging that that I need help, and I need to take ownership and accountability for my bad habits and health and what changes I need to make that happen.
