LIKE

Im also going to add that as far as Im concerned exercise is like money in the bank .... U see benefits right away U see loss right away U clothes fit better U feel and look better and have more energy ... have a better shape .. look younger ...

but like in the middle of the OCEAN theres also a whole OTHER more subtle very long term wave system going on too ....

just based on my personal experience . I HAVE occasionally given up exercising because I COULD for the first time in my life after WLS and I didn't BLOW UP

. THat was a MIRACLE .

what I found though is that all the years of effort i DID put in still somewhat kept my body in check ... and when i DO put on my sports bra and shorts and gear .. well I have the muscle memory to still go kick butt . ( and the definition thank God comes back the next morning too )

What Im trying to say is the benefits DEFINITELY dont end this week or even this YEAR . theyre CUMULATIVE and many-faceted. I think maybe the BEST thing we can do for ourselves and our long term health and happiness is to find a sport or three we REALLY enjoy doing ..... and give ourselves the gift of the TIME to enjoy .

Im amazed that im

averaging 123 lbs this Monday morning !! ( according to the LYING scale but so what ) ...

ill take any loss I can get

- on that note first priority today is enjoying the post hurricane sunshine with a long rollerblade down by the shore to some vintage rap !

Amy, I know I'll have fluctuations, I just hope this isn't where I stop. I wanted to get down to at least 135 before I start bouncing up and down a lb or two...and I am not quite there yet.

But if I am done, that's fine...as long as the inches keep disappearing for a while longer.

last week 120
this week 118

loss 2 lbs. Amazing. Everytime I start thinking this is it, I seem to lose again. 3 lbs in July and 3 lbs in August. I could bounce back up but I've been as low at 117 this week and haven't gone up more than 118 so maybe this is my new bounce range for a while.
