The most important thing to remember is what you mentioned- pace yourself, don't overdo it!
I tend to be like a wild horse and run out the gates before the race has started, and of course land flat on my face; end of all good intentions!
I like the idea of a planner, and posting about your progress. Would be kind of accountable and spur you on to continue.
As for weight loss, I was forced to cut portion sizes after abdominal surgery last year, ate more healthy but still had a small treat daily, nil after dinner, and lost 7kg, which I've maintained.
Walking sure is the very best exercise!
Good luck and a healthy 2025!
Thank you, likewise!
The hardest part seems to just start for me currently!
