I'd just like to say, you can totally do it! I have a
friend who was overweight... she would never tell me exactly
how much she weighed because she was embarrassed, but it was
over 200 pounds. At that time, I weighed around 155, but over
the next 8 months, I lost 20 pounds.

As she saw me losing weight, just by not eating as much junk
food and exercising twice a week, she realized that she could
also lose weight. She started to make an effort and also began
to lose weight.

A year after I started losing weight, everyone began to comment
on how terrific she looked. Although she still hadn't reached her
eventual target weight, she weighed around 150, which was such an
achievement that she looked so self-confident to everyone else,
which only further motivated her.

We would motivate each other, go to the gym together, and just talk
about it. Having a friend who has the same goals as you can really
help to motivate you.

We both found that if we went to the gym regularly (at least twice
a week) we were also more likely to eat healthily, because we didn't
want to ruin all of our hard work! Also, try not to be discouraged if
exercising is hard at first. It will be, for awhile, until your body
adjusts. Exercising for 20 minutes at a slow pace is better than not
exercising at all.
