New day, new thinking
Feb 07, 2010
Well today I made a new commitment to exercising. I saw that on OH member who had a lap band lost 90 pounds in seven months and I asked her how see did it and she wrote that the main thing she did was exercise 2000 minutes a month. I got out by trusty calculator and that averages 66 minutes a day! Now I would be lying if I stated I could see myself doing 66 minutes a day but I am ready to do at least 30 a day. I went on my video on demand and found a ton of exercises I can do that are fun and are somewhat of a challenge besides being on my treadmill. I am scheduled for a fill tomorrow and that should help with the food. One of the reasons I decided on the lap band was to loss the weight on a moderate basis due to being a slow paced person. I like the benefits of the WLS but I know I have to do more than eat less and exercise. I have to change my way of thinking that being big means being powerful and a force to be dealt with. I know I have used by size to make others feel that I am right, they are small and to to get my way and that is not something that I want to continue to do because it is not a good thing in the overall way to live life. Every day is a new way to live and I have always believed that everyday you learn something new and I need all the help from my friends and fellow OH family.
