I did five mornings in the gym for cardio this week! Today, no gym. Instead, I will be mowing the lawn. Exercise, but not that much fun. Tonight, I'm looking to have some mini-golf fun. My doctor gave me the go ahead to do what I want in the gym, so I think I will start doing weights 3 or 4 nights a week. That added to my five mornings a week of cardio should do wonders for my weight loss goals.

Today, I'm down 37 lbs. since I started my pre-surgery diet less than a month ago.

Ran 4.97 miles on the elliptical this morning. Then walked up and down the stairs at work quite a bit dealing with bad kids again. Came home walk the puppies for one-mile. Then went to the gym and lifted weights for about 45 minutes. Busy day!

I took this morning off from the gym. I needed the sleep! I'm getting ready to take the puppies for a walk now.

Started the day with 45 minutes on the stair master (arc trainer) at the gym. Then walked around the Magic Kingdom at Disney until the rain started. Now I'm heading home for my 5 oz. lunch.

20 km run today...my longest thus far. Getting ready to do a HM next month.

http://connect.garmin.com/activity/448787249

AND IT ALL STARTED WITH ONE! No matter where you are in the fitness ranks....NEVER, ever give up.

NO one...NO one, NO one starts out by being fit. Its a process. You Just do what you can do...and then you do it again..and again.

100% true statement here... My goal was 19km at a 10 min pace today. As I started today, I didn't know if I would get through the first 5k....my mind just wasn't ready.....THEN, some good music came on, remembering where I was 7 months ago tomorrow ( my first run in 20+ years), and remembering some of the motivation from this site from several different folks.

Happy Friday everyone! Enjoy your weekend....I'm going to! :)

Today was one of those days.....went to gym ay 6 am....while in the locker room changing my clothes, I decided I just did not have it today.....so I spent a good 45 minutes in the sauna (think I fell asleep)....then 30-40 minutes in the HOT whirlpool...shave and shower...fresh clothes.....ordered a Protein shake from the juice bar before heading home....

No workout....after going at it day after day sometimes you just have to shut down....and that's exactly what I did...and still doing...

That was at 6am, now it is 3pm and I feel a little guilty and I'm ready to go back..but perhaps it is better to do nothing today....

It happens....

      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.
