I feel amazing! I'm sleeping better, I'm more alert and active. I started my Couch to 5k app yesterday. It kicked my rear. My legs were on FIRE. But, today I walked with my mom, we made a 2 mile stent around the block and did well. Tomorrow, I'll pickup on day 2. Hopefully, now that I know what I'm in for I won't be so surprised.
And amongst all this; I worry sometimes. Is this really going to come off? Am I going to be stuck this way? How am I going to get this done? BUT for the first time in a long time I haven't just looked at my self and felt defeated. Maybe it's because I'm actually, keeping track and listening to the right people. Maybe, this really is my turn. I know that what I'm going through, someone else has gone through before. My news is not new news. Yet, it can fell like quicksand, and fast.
A few weeks ago my co-workers got this idea for the core 3 of us to go on a diet together, One wanted to lose her baby weight, the other had gained after a messy divorce and I was the perpetual chubby one not wanting to be fat anymore. I am the only one who even remotely stuck to something. Which is a new leaf for me. Most of the time I am the first one to bale. The other 2 had family this and that. They would start again; fresh this time... eventually. One finally admitted that she was going to have a burger at the ball park while her kids played ball. Honestly, that part made me a little jealous. I do love a good burger. ;)
What I really want, isn't for some one to do a "diet" with me; but to get victory over this the right way. To have the weight off and stay off. To start adding things to my bucket list. Instead of feeling like I would never get it done because, of "who I am".
I am far enough up this mountain that I can't go back, and I am too close to the peak to stop. But, I can't camp out in the middle either. I've put work in today. And I know it will pay off. One day at a time.
Nothing major today, just thinking out loud.
Love the Brotherhood.

Great attitude! It is always about changing your lifestyle and not just "dieting." You can do this, it is absolutely your time! Good luck :)

It's natural to question ourselves when we begin a program. It's hard. No doubt but it. Just look back and the weight you've already lost. That's pretty amazing. The longer you work the program the easier it gets and becomes a normal way of life for you.

You've got this!!! My doc told me tonight that when you own it, only then does it become important enough for you to handle it yourself!!!

The mental part is the biggest hurdle and it sounds like you are determined, you will succeed! You are motivated, take pictures along the journey to remind yourself how far you have come and remember "you can do all things through Christ who gives you strength."

You pave the road between where you are and where you want to be. Don't question yourself, don't question your motives, this is just creating doubt and putting up walls in your path. You'll do this. You'll do it one step at a time, and in complete control of your journey.

I totally understand where your coming from. my weight had me so depressed that I felt doomed. to be honest, I really didn't want to live anymore if this body was the one I was stuck with. I couldn't even stand to look in the mirror. the person looking back didn't even look like me! Having people on here giving me support has helped me to find the motivation I needed to get up off my butt and start doing something about it! .............THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE FOR ME!
Remember.... WERE IN THIS TOGETHER!

I have had and do have those same worries about my weight. It has been such a battle. I am needing a very serious and much needed surgery, but need to lose 20 lbs more before my surgeon will operate on me.

WOW! Can you hear the change in your perspective? You are in for the long, hard climb BB. You are going to enjoy this climb. This is all you in this moment. You are who you are now, but you are building the BB you want to be. Glad to be on this mountain side with you. You take care of the mental & the weight will be just a matter of time & math. This is no "diet." This is how BB now lives. Loved your thought about we are not "losing" weight the other day. We are casting it off. We are tossing it down the side of this mountain.

Your attitude is awesome!! I do the couch to 5K too and this is my 3rd time going back to it in the past couple of years because it's a great way to work up to a whole 5K and learn to pace yourself. This is a journey and it may take a while, so don't get discouraged if the weight doesn't just melt off, it takes so much more work to get it off than to put it on. Also, you're making healthy changes that will last your lifetime, so make changes that you know you can stick with. You can do this!!

Kind of in the same boat. Started out with a group trying to lose weight and am one of the only ones still working at it! You can do it. It sounds like you are doing great and have a great mind set about it.

Wow, good for you. While it is great to have folks who are close to you that are also trying to lose weight, ultimately, it is up to you to do this for yourself. I am so proud that you didn't let your friend's burger derail you. You are strong. You can be healthy and fit. You can do whatever you want if you set your mind to it and stay the course for the long haul. Sounds like you have a great attitude for this journey. :)

I'm one of those people who have experienced what you're going through. Ride that positive attitude all the way to success. Celebrate each step along the way, as you get stronger, your clothes are a little looser, you have to buy new clothes, someone tells you that you look great. Smile at your sweat; evidence of your hard work.
Fatsecret, these people, have helped me immensely. I'm 5"3", and weighed 255 at one point. I've tried a lot of things, and have found lasting support and darn good success from being here. I'm so glad that you're here, too.
