I know that it sounds like a cliche, but it's all in our head... I didn't have a problem with obesity, but I had a problem with being lazy and "not active" at all... Most of the time I spend on the computer chair...
But, I started to use Actifit and it really helped to push me to go out for walks... slowly rising my limits... and now, it's just a habit.. and I can't go to bed if I didn't do my daily walk... :)
Be positive and move your limits up every day/week... just a bit higher... ;)
Absolutely! I've realized that being negative about the shape we're in doesnt do any good either... Keep growing(shrinking or limitations) and taking the positive route.
