walking the weight off
Aug 09, 2010
I am trying to focus on reaching my goal.
I have only 29 pounds to go I hit my goal. I love working out. It makes me
feel like I am working it out for me. I know that with diet alone I can't
lose weight and keep it off I have to get moving and this is what I
plan to do.
Ok I Finally caught Up
Aug 05, 2010
Ok I have just reached July's goal and even though we
are 5 days into August my mindset is atleast I made it. Ok
so Now I can focus on August goal. I am so proud of what
I have done because I have never gone this far and been
so comfortable in my Skin so I say good for me. I am
excited but I have not lost focus that I still have 29 pounds to
go to reach my goal. I started July with 40 to lose so I am
alot closer to reaching my goal.
Keep Falling Short
Aug 03, 2010
say oh well because I can see it coming. Each month I
set a goal and last month I was only 1 pound from my July
goal which means I have to add that pound to my August
goal so I have to work a little harder in August.
I dont get depressed about it because I am no where near
the person I use to be. I have life in me. I am very active and
out going. I am loving the person I have turned out to be. I no
longer turn my head or walk rear fast by a mirror. As a matter
of fact I was in my Zumba class on Monday and I said WOW
look at me. I smiled. Thats Big for me.
So yes I am hitting the walking trails every morning and taking Zumba
and water aerobics so dont count me out yet.
This Scale is killing me
Jul 29, 2010
In the beginning of my journey like the first year of my
surgery I did no get on my scale. I only got weighed at my
doctor's office. But I found that i was slipping up some where
and I wanted to be more accountable so I had this bright
idea that I would weigh myself every day in July.
a good idea but a good idea. But Really. I found that I have
a love hate relationship with my scale. But it made me
make better food choices and step up my work out.
Because I wouldn't journal my foods I had to find out what
would work for me and I. We all have to find out what is best
for us. This is not a diet to me its a lifestyle change so what
ever I do I want to make sure I will be able to live with it
forever. I dont want to do something to get the weight off
and I cant continue to do it.
I dont judge or look to be judge we all are headed to the finish
line some may get there quicker than others but we all will
get there. I do my best to follow the bad rules but again this
is my life and I am doing the best that I can do. I love what
my band has done for me and with me.
I work out twice a day at least 6 days a week but this is my
choice I dont drink anything but water or crystal light again
this is my choice. My band decided that we dont do bread
so I dont do bread but if I want anything else I try it just to
taste it so I can get pass the crave. Just find your fit and you
will do great.
Its hard but I am doing it.

feels so right. I am doing this for myself. I am so close to my goal I can taste it. I have to
have it by Dec 2
Its Saturday

I went on my morning walk as usual this morning but I walked a little further. I am really trying to
do more this week because Sunday evening I wont be able to do Zumba I have a church event to
go to. At 10am I will be leaving to take Zumba with Carmen then its off to doing what ever I want to
as long as I eat right. I am having a hard time losing these last 6 months for this month. My goal is
to be 140 by Dec 2 I walk every day and I work out 5 evenings. We shall see.
I am here
Jul 22, 2010
day I have already walked atlest 3 miles before most people get up to start there
day. The walking in the early morning has given me a chance to grieve for my sister
in law who was a friend that I took care of in the end and to feel good about me no
matter what. So I am winning all the way around with this move. I did Zumba with
Carmen last night and water aerobics after which was great I was so tired I could
only eat 3 folks of a salad.
Even though I say I am doing this for me I realize I am doing it for my daughters too. I
have set such a bad eating and work out habit for nearly all of there little life so now I am
changing things for all of us we are all doing better. I apologized to them for making
things so bad for them. I always thought I was such a great mom but my daughters
eating habits was a learn behavior from me. No more. We have not been to McDonalds
any this summer if its not salad or a sub place we dont do the fried any more I never
stopped to think about what I was doing to my girls. I dont by the junk yes they eat
cookies or ice cream if they go places but no way near what we were buying.
This band has changed alot because I get to soul search and examine the purpose of
Me. I am not perfect but I am alot better than what I have ever been.
I set a written schedule I just take one day at a time but I make my set accountable. No more
waiting till tomorrow or I will do it later with me the time is now.
It Just hit me
Jul 21, 2010
I am finally spending time with me. I get up every morning at 5am to start my morning walk
at 530 but is really more than that I am spending time with me and I really love it. I can't
wait to get up in the morning to walk and I am excited to go work out in the evening and
this is all for me. I get 2 to 3 hours in my day now working on me.
For years I worked on everyone else and I am finally working me. My husband and
daughters are so proud of me. I have so much more energy. I can do what the girls
want to do and not be tired out and I can go with my husband and not worry about
being the biggest person at the cookouts or party it's just different and I really
am loving the person I am.
Walking
Jul 20, 2010
I am still working this weight off
Jul 19, 2010
the right thing for me and my girls. I am fighting a battle every moment
with this weight its not easy but I am worth the best and that is what I
want. I dont know how I got so comfortable being so unhealthly but it
feels good trying to be healthly. I did not realize that I would have so
many people that dont even know me not happy for my change. If you
dont know my story ask me dont judge me.
I walk every morning atleast 3 miles and I do zumba 5 days a week. It
is times when I do extra but this is a routine for me now.
