There is no embarrassment to starting slow you are taking the steps you need to be healthy. Everything starts with baby steps to eventually reach the goal that you want. Yes, there will be ups and downs, but in order to get where you want to be you have to start somewhere even if it is a slow start.

I'm currently at 488 lbs, and I'm looking for anyone else in the 400 plus lbs category. Being this close to 500 is a wake-up call I can't ignore anymore.
"Happy Thursday, everyone! I hope you are all doing well and having a productive day. I'm spending my day staying warm, catching up on housework, and heading to the store. I'm also doing some deep dive research into which weight loss surgery options would be the best fit for my health goals.
Today's Menu:
Breakfast: Savory Cottage Cheese Bowl
Lunch: Mediterranean Chicken Quinoa Salad
Dinner: Turkey Chili
Good Thursday Morning Gang. It's even colder this morning and by the weekend is supposed to be -20 but there is a possibility of us missing the other snowstorm that might hit on Sunday. I really do hope it stays out to sea.
I have to run a few errands for work this morning which I honestly don't want to do only because it is cold. The second water testing training is going on for a few hours and then there is just ice/cold prep stuff going on. I do have to do the weekly haz waste inspection which only takes about 15 minutes.
QOTD: I'll have to circle back for a question.
B: coffee with collagen
L: Turkey soup
D: left over pork loaf
Not sure if we are going to the Y tonight with the weather being in the negative numbers.
Have a great day everyone.

For those who had a high starting weight: How did you handle the 'embarrassment' of starting slow? I want to run the basketball court one day, but I'm starting with baby steps."

Good mornin y'all.
i have an appointment with my mental health NP and case manager. That's all that's set in stone. Oh and we'll pay the taxes on the house today...all half of it. Half of it will be paid in March. Thankfully our county does allow that for seniors(my mom).
I'm really in a lot of pain today, I want to take an ibuprofen so badly.
QOTD: being accountable and truthful with myself.
B: egg pita and mini frittata...coffee
L: hamburger soup and maybe a piece of garlic low carb bread
D: thinking a frozen Shepards pie. May be a few mini quiches
Happy Hump Day Gang!! Brr it was -1 when I got up this morning. Can't wait until Winter is over and we are potential getting another big storm this Sunday. I have to get my office area set up to start some veggie seeds for the garden this year. I'm making my list of what I want to grow.
Not all that much going on at work except for some reason the UO's are forgetting to tarp the ash trailers and are leaving them outside instead of in the ash storage area. I will have to send out an email regarding it.
QOTD: What is something you've accomplished so far in January? I've gotten better at tracking my foods nutritional values. Not 100%, but about 80%. Baby steps right?
B: Supergreens drink it had a rather unusual taste, but not in a bad way.
L: Tukey soup
D: ground pork and mushrooms loaf
Tonight is weights at the Y.
Have a great day everyone!!

Good afternoon y'all.
I've already had my PT appointment and b-12 shot today. Got groceries and back home.
still pretty icy with the minor roads. Still chilly but supposed to be up to 45°, we'll see about that.
as for the pats...if you can't say something nice don't say it at all...LOL in reality I couldn't care much less than I do about football this season. I actually do like the young QB for the patriots,so I'd rather have em win over the Seahawks.
B: eggs, ricotta, 1 slice of toast and coffee
L: hamburger soup, small applesauce smoothie and crackers with cheese dip.
D: not sure on this one yet.
set of earrings for myself. Present for myself late for Christmas. Then a real pair of Lego crocs.
Organize things and cleaning is what I ended up doing Sunday and Monday.

Good Tuesday morning menuer's. So, we ended up with 17 inches of snow when the storm was finally over. Irvin and I were outside most of the day yesterday shoveling and plowing. The Patriots won Sunday so they are off to the Superbowl and will go against the Seahawks. Crossing fingers that the Pats can pull off another win.
I came into work a little later due to the roads still being a bit messy. We are getting cameras installed in the admin building which is great. There have been things going missing lately and we're not sure if it the cleaning crew that comes in at night or employees.
B: coffee and breakfast wrap
L: turkey soup
D: lamb and small salad
Hoping to make it to the Y tonight. They were closed Sunday and Monday due to the storm.
Have a great day everyone!!
