GREAT DAY IN THE MORNING!

Apr 25, 2010

Well I did it!  I started and completed the 3 mile walk with Leslie Sansone today.  I had been thinking about it and planning on it so today I said, "don't be scared, just do it" and I did it!  The weird thing was it was not as challenging as I thought it would be and I have been doing the 2 mile walk for a while.  I am losing an average of 1.5 lbs. weekly since I started but what I am noticing that I have more energy and handle stress in healthier ways such as working out and not stuffing my face with food.  I also find that I feel better too and my legs and back are not hurting like it was before surgery.  I paid off my 3 day Bahama cruise that I am going on in September and I really am glad it's only three days.  I have cruised before for 5 and 7 days and for me at this time in my journey 3 days is long enough to be on a floating food barge!  I am planning on finding a walking excursion due that being a goal of mine. In the past I have traveled and would find a taxi or bus sightseeing excursion because I was not open to ALL THAT WALKING AND PEOPLE SEEING ME SWEAT AND STRUGGLE TO BREATH and now I look forward to being able to walk around a new place with confidence in my walk.  I am glad that I had my surgery due to feeling like I have a new lease on life.  Regardless of the number of pounds I lose I am grateful and thankful for the positive changes that I have had so far. Take care,
