WLS motivator - Get up and MOVE something!!!

This WLS journey can be a funny thing - when we were pre-ops, lots of us had mobility problems.  We couldn't run, couldn't jog and lots of us even had problems with just basic walking.  Joint pain, back pain, muscle issues - we were just plain uncomfortable or in pain and exercise was difficult.

And it was our goal when we were pre-ops.  "I just want to be able to walk in the park on the track" "I just want to walk on the treadmill in the gym without being in pain" "I want to be able to get around without hurting" We all said this or some variation.

WHY then, now that we have lost weight and are finally more comfortable and mobile have we become lazy??  So many of us started with ambitious gym plans - but we now choose sleep or TV time instead of gym time.  All that wishing and hoping and now we turn our backs on the privilege we were so anxious to get.

Take a moment to remember what you COULDN'T do - then use that as motivation to get out and do what you SHOULD be doing.  Don't waste the gift - make the time!!!!  

GET OUT AND MOVE SOMETHING TODAY!!! 

  Thanks Trina for putting things in perspective in your very own 'special' way!
This is that 'kick in da butt' we all need to here to get us back on track.

GM, Trina.

I'm moving my fingers as we speak. :)  lol.  Have a good one, babe.

gm, Kim

True dat.  Good stuff.  Thank you! 

GM, gorgeous. 

Top of the morning to you, D. 

Absolutely!

You're so right!

Peoplke lose steam very quickly.  If you get up and do it before you can even think of talking yourself out of it, you'll get it done.

Hey Lee,

You are so right. This is the approach I have to use for myself. If I allow the dread conversation to go on in my head I will never get it done. I have to just set a time and when the time comes get up and do it.
