Exercise motivation?????

Girl, I did absolutely no exercise until 7 months post-op and lived to tell the tale...lol. Seriously, I was also the queen of excuses and my body ached from being obese. Exercising hurt. But by month 7, I had lost over 100 pounds. I was determined to get to goal. I knew I would never do that unless I started exercising. I just made myself do it. Period. So can you.

I go to the gym 3 times a week. I knew I could make that a permanent goal. I am a single mom of two, so getting there any more than that was not likely. If I go more than that, great, if not, I at least got there 3 times a week.

My surgeon likes to tell us that we can lose weight without exercising, but to keep it off, we must exercise. I know there are some people here who don't exercise and have managed to keep their weight off, but they are the exception and not the rule.

Just do it!!
