Pedometer
I was looking back on some of my hand written books where I tracked my progress and I noticed I didn’t exerecise as much as I was before I got sick and something else I noticed I wore my pedometer everyday and got 10,000 steps or more. Why did I ever change what was worjing for me? I am picking up my pedometer and I am putting it back on and I am counting my steps.

How bad do you want it? January 30, 2008
Not just a song by Tim McGraw but a song that gives me so much sych when I am working out.
My husband asks me this question alot he says its a way of keeping me focused & motivated. He says do you want it bad enough to keep at it even if it means you will continue to hit curves and mishaps.
Sometimes I ask myself this very question when it comes to food or exercise or an outfit I want that is only in a smaller size.
Do you want to see your goal weight bad enough to eat that chocolate cake? Do you want to see your goal weight bad enough to where you don’t want to do your workout for today? Do you want it bad enough to see how stunning that smaller size outfit will look on you? Well do you?
YES I DO!

Back to exercise January 29, 2008
I am officially able to go back to exercising, however I am on a set doc ordered schedule. This week I am only allowed 30 minutes of low to moderate exercise so I figured I would do 30 minutes on my treadmil while I watch the first 30 minutes of Biggest Loser. Boy will I be glad to be able to do this. That is if this awful headache pain goes away.

My Hair January 28, 2008
I have been suffering from these awful headaches so I was hoping by cutting my hair it would lessen some of the pressure I have on my head.

Surgeon Appt. January 24, 2008
This morning I had an appt with a surgeon so he can take a look at this knot/lump my doc found on the side of my face about 2months ago.
Pathologist (sp) took 6 needles and one at a time dug them deep into my face/the lump and boy did it hurt - no numbness no anastesia (sp) no nothin but pain. I get my results in 24-48 hrs .
Next week I have to go for a cat scan on my neck & head for this lump as well as for the horrible headaches I have been keeping.

Don’t worry about it January 23, 2008
Just go with the flow - what will be will be - stop putting so much infasist on your eating and exercising and just do it. No counting calories just make wise food choices and pay close attention to portion and I think all will be well.
This is kind of what I have been forced to do being under doctors care. No exercise just plenty of rest and eating the healthiest food possible. But will all this bring a good # on the scale Friday?
