So I'm not on a diet I'm 'making life changes' and as well as loosing the weight I want to be fitter. I began by walking more and I've got an activity tracker that encourages me to go for another walk if I've not moved enough. I've set target at 8000 but I'm happier at 10,000. And yesterday I joined the gym. Today is my induction and my first session.
I've lurked on a lot of threads and seen people say they were big and are either at target or are still on their journey, also that they struggled to go for a walk but now love to exercise. Aside from keeping up the walking, I'm not sure how to approach this. Do I go in there and do a full hour jumping from machine to machine? Stick to one thing? Do that couch to 5k thing on the treadmill?
What exercise did you try when you were at your biggest to start you off? Where should I start so I'm not going to overdo it and not go back?
Mid 30's, size 20/22, almost 16 stone.
