One Workout Away From A Great Mood

Does anyone else feel this way?

This is my new motto.

I have to work out in the evenings after work - as I catch the vanpool at 5:40 AM.

So I find myself all day - I can't wait to get to the gym....

Maybe it's a good thing, it keeps me eating right thru the day so I can endure my workout with strength!?

I am in the best mood after a workout!!

Me too! But, I can't always get out of work on time to get to the gym. It makes me soooo frustrated. I wish I could just tell my bosses "hey, give me one stinkin' year to take care of myself".

Exercise really does make you feel better. I see what I need to do today. After I finish I have a sense of accomplishment and I feel closer to my goals. I am doing something for myself when I workout and that is a wonderful thing.

When the weather was cooler I was excited about going to the park to walk after work. Now, I have to force myself to do something right after work. But on the weekends I have the rush, I have to get out of the house and walk. Have to. I like that feeling. WOW I'm ready to go. I guess I will be doing the walk away the pounds tape. I will go to the library and rent Billy Blanks this weekend. I am ready to get on this.

Hi All, for over 10 years I walked in the mornings and keep my weight in check - then, everything changed - hubby became very ill and passed away and yep - the weight shot right up! The band is helping get weight down BUT I just hadn't started walking. BUT I finally set my alarm clock and I am walking again early in the AM. I like walking in the AM because nothing ever gets in the way of me doing it. If I have a chance or the weather is nice, I like to take a short walk in the evenings. But, like all of you the evenings are alittle harder because "life" always finds away to mess it up. Thanks for this thread. And let's keep moving and smiling!

Yep walking in the AM really helps my mood and view about life.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
