DAY 1
Today’s mantra: This is about me taking the first steps to a healthier life.
Today’s step target: 7000
Tip/testimony from volunteer: For years I tried different dieters’ classes and quick-fix programs but what I really needed was education. By developing an understanding of the foods I should be avoiding and those I should be increasing, and learning to fit structured exercise around my family, I feel like I can achieve my goal at last. Vickie, 29
