Walking

Jun 26, 2010

 I want to thank my friend Becky for pushing me to walk the other day  showing me that I can walk close to 2 miles without dying. I did it tonight by MYSELF. Ok not by myself. Had my partner in crime with my my 4month old Chihuahua puppy, Bowzwer with me. It was funny we had a street fair today and he got spooked and ran back home. So actually, tonight I walked more then or 2 miles. But I feel good. Hot sweat and tired. Now off to shower and play around online. Not really sleepy. I have the munchies though. Maybe I will steam some veggies to eat. yeah that sounds good.

walking

Jun 24, 2010

 So I have started this slow process of getting my butt up and walking. Every night this week I have walked down the hill in front of my house to check the mail. I know it don't sound far only .51 miles but the walking back up kills me.  takes me about 20 mins or so. But I feel it. Today my back is hurting but I am going down and back up around 9pm or so today..check the mail and back..check the mail and back. It is a start right???

Thought

Jun 21, 2010

Hello again.  I think I am still in the reading and learning process.  I have fears. Like yesterday, I was talking to my friends and they said "What about the "crack head" look that can happen from rapid weight loss?" I had not thought about that. I am prepared for the sunken in face? I have a feeling that after you body levels off. I do not know how I feel about saggy skin.  I feel there are so many things to consider. 

I have learned that 1. My Mother is behind me what ever I choose today. 2. My boyfriend said he is in this with me. 3. I have a best friend that will be here for me too. 4. I know that as I open up on OH I should find more people that will be here in a virtual yes you can vent here way. and last 5. Venting on YouTube when you don't want to type is a way to see yourself in a different light. 

Now time to do some foot work. I am going now to register for my first seminar.

My First

Jun 18, 2010

 I do not know where to start this so I will start in the beginning i guess? I am 36 years old. Mother of 2. I think I been bigger then all the kids I know all my life. I recently went to the doctors and weighed in at 290 pounds and 4 ounces. That was an eye opener. What shocked me was that in April I weighed 270. I do not know how or when I gained 20lbs in 2 months. I wanted to cry but did not want the nurses and doctors to see that side of me. I think it is funny because a few years back 2 of my friends wanted surgery and I was like we just need to do this or that. Neither one of them listened to me and had their operations.  My friend Inni went to Truman Hospital here in Missouri had her's done in like 2003 I think. Then my Amber had her's while i lived in NY like 2008, I need to read her blog.  She went to Mexico I think. I do know that I do not want to travel to get this done one and 2 if i am going to do this I do not want a band I want the full thing.  I just don't know where to turn. So Amber sent me here. What are my next steps.
