Thanks Health!!!!

My 1st attempt at losing weight was great and getting off my butt was not part of it-many many excuses. This time, I've joined classes at the Y that I had to pay for-that way I forced to get out and do some excerise-and for the 1st time in my life-it feels amazing!!!! Great topic-Thanks!

Thanks Health.

I already turn the tv off and go for a walk for an hour everyday. I've also just ordered a total gym from Guthy Renf(umm can't remember the rest of it) which came highly recommended by two people and I intend to plonk it in the lounge and use while watching the tv I do watch.

Hey Health, I read many of your post and it is wonderful to have such support on this site. This is my fifth day on Phen and I have been walking sporadically for about two weeks. I haven't had any side affects from the meds, but my clothes are fitting much better.

This weekend I made excuses not to excercise, but not anymore. I'm gonna get off my "pa-too-ty" and walk!

Thanx for your support!

And to everyone else on the site...Good Luck and Keep up the Good Work!

Question
Health4Life, I have a question. I see you started out with the same weight that I am right now, 258. How long did it take you to get to your current weight? By the way, great job! Keep up the good work!

I just knew it had to be Health that bumped this again
In prison, you spend most of your life looking through bars from the inside wanting to get out.
At work, you spend most of your time wanting to get out and go inside bars.

Talking
Health, I love this post!! It is so true!! I feel so bad for all my cyberfriends because in the last 3 weeks, I have not been on very much. I was miss talkative and all of a sudden I just dropped off the radar! My friend Ericka lives in Texas, and she had a dream that I killed myself because it is so unlike me to be off line for more than one afternoon. She sent me some freaked out msg's because she could not understand it!! I have a fitness and health group on the "y" groups, and I was always giving these girls support and motivation. Nobody was ever giving me any!! So I decided to screw that, because I am worth this. Why should I sit on my butt trying to make things easier for some other people who could care less if I make my goals? No way. So now I have not posted for a while, and I really don't plan on it. You guys have supported me way more than my own group!! This is what I had hoped for when I started that group, but I had no idea I was really looking for this place .

But ever since I took this leap, I had to get off my butt and do something. I mean just a couple weeks ago, I posted saying how I was too fat to go to the gym. But then I thought about it and figured, hello? That is WHY I need to go! So I go and I am comfy because I wear workout clothes- tank top, shorts, and not a big huge t shirt and sweats. I may be bigger than some of the other girls but I don't care. I am going to look hella good soon enough. It is really sad though, when you see a really skinny girl exercising her butt off and "hiding" under a bunch of bulky clothes. It makes me wonder if I will ever be happy with myself. I am 177 today, and I feel fatter than ever. I went from a Large shirt to a Medium. But my butt is still huge. huge ***** But I read this earlier, I think Big d said it. I am so glad I started when i did and not later. By the time it gets unbearable out here, I will be almost at my goal. I just know it!!

It is late, and I think I went off a little...but really great post. thanks!!

Great advice!

Hi health, thanks! I recently stopped coming to this site b/c I really wanted to hear more about weight issues, not saying that people shouldn't get support on other things that are bothering them, but it just became more of a party line. I missed what you just posted and what a few other people used to post. Which is why I joined this site. It was really starting to get depressing to me. I'm still working out and all, but sometimes I pop in just to see if there's a thread that is motivating or informative. Thanks again, I'm sure there are a lot of people that are not interested in posting, but just want that motivation and reminder.
