Well I know i can't do this myself. My already skinny friends just want me to fail. So I am coming to this site for objective help. Dieting and working out will not become the center of my life. Rather I want to make small, gradual changes in my lifestyle. I have started by increasing water and fruit juice intake. Omitting candy and sodas. Making sure i get 5 fruits and veggies a day. So far I have also worked out for at least 20 minutes everyday.

I think losing 40 pounds would be a terrific start. So this is my goal for now. Hunny is home now. So I hope to look around for buddies and advice tomorrow, when he isn't looking over my shoulder.
