I was offered by my doctor after she told me I would make a great candidate for lap band surgery. I am still hesitant to it as I have dealt with being fat all my life and is now seeing my kids become fat. I want them to know that if you work hard for something the result will be more full filling and more rewarding. I don't want them to think that you can cheat your way through life. So I have said since my doctor appt. I am going to loose 100 lbs before my birthday, Sept. 22. Yesterday I took my first steps to weight loss and walked 4x's around my neighborhood and took 5,119 and I felt so good after that. I have a picture I found that inspires me so much, "If it is important to you, you will find a way. If not, you'll find an excuse." I love that, my health and being around for my kids is important to me and I don't want to give an excuse. So 100 lbs before Sept. 22. I got this.
This is so hard to post but I have to get this going.
Weight as of today: 294 lbs
Goal by 9-22:194 lbs
Goal by 12-31: 144 lbs
Yes I like to set my goal high that is 150 lbs by the end of the year. Ok I got this.
Now I know most are saying why such a high goal when you have struggled all of your life? Cause me being around to see my kids means more then any number. If I get down 50 lbs then you know what that is less I have to carry around so if by the end of the year and I am only down 50 lbs did I loose my goal? Nope I won so much more then just a number I won the fact that I can accomplish whatever I put my mind to.
