Hi everybody,

[Allannas]

I'm a newbie around here and starting a new fitness program with a personal trainer and trying to start implementing a few diet rules.  I haven't had the emotional strength and endurance to keep to the diet rules I've tried to make for myself in the past.  When I see candy or cookies or cupcake or cake or anything delicious set in front of me and/or offered to me, I take it and eat it, even when I know I really shouldn't.  I know my body really doesn't want it, but my mind does!  I'm diabetic and weigh 188 lbs. with a height of 5'6".  I need to lose about 50 lbs. for the sake of my health.  I'm going to be lurking around here, and hopefully trying a challenge or two.  I want to be a ranger...stronger than I am now, with high endurance.

Aloha and welcome!

 

Having a personal trainer is great, if he's competent talk with him about your diet changes, I believe it will motivate you more,

 

I wish you the best of luck and health for your journey!
