30 min @ 2.0-2.3 155 cals/1.06 mile - taking it easy today

I need to :whip: up some motivation and get back in gear tomorrow.

Wonder if Home Depot would mind if I helped them re-arrange their plants and stuff while we're there today - that can be some weight training right there!:Banane13:

The day is not over get another 30 minute walk in there....burn another 155.

Home Depot rejected my application, they said I was overqualified :grin:

Well back on the treadmill today, literally. I hadnt done anything for a little over a week becuase of my stupid eye, and I have my first ever fun run on Sunday so I really needed to get back to it.

Did a 4km easy run, incline of 1, burned about 400 calories, so I was happy with that. I hadnt lost any fitness. I think I'll do an easy one tomorrow too, nothing too strenuous before the fun run.

You know, it's funny you mention that because I was thinking about that this morning: Why didn't I do this before the band? Then it occurred to me that I DID do it before the band, but because I saw minimal results, and it was SO HARD to follow a diet when you're eating as much as you do, that I just gave up. The band's just sort of like your diet helper friend. But really, I don't exercise ALL that much - if you look at the numbers it ranges from 20-60 minutes/day.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
