Hi everybody I am back! I have been so busy with school. I just saw a site called SparkPeople. Has anyone ever used them? I haven't had time to look at them in depth.
Here is what I am doing, I have had to make a choice now. I have survived cancer and I can feel my health really being affected by my weight. I am now UP to 347!!
I am not happy about that at all. But I have stressed ate my way through a term and a half of school and I see now I have got to make a choice.
I am switching my online weight watchers to actual meetings. I signed up with a personal trainer at the gym, I NEVER go to, but belonged to for a year. I made an appointment with an acupuncturist.
My motivation? I have got to live to see my 40s. I am 39 and will be 40 in december, and the plan has always been to go to Africa to cage dive with sharks. We are now setting things in motion for that trip. But there is NO way I am going this heavy. (besides looking like an egg with legs in a wet suit
)
We went to Egypt, Israel and Jordan, plus Germany, we were gone a month, that was in May of last year. I have to say the worst thing was the plane seats. It was HORRIBLE. I was 20 pounds lighter then. I am now just sick of this on and off thing. I am going all out for this one. If not now, then when? Rehab after a stroke? Or another bout with cancer... which was caused by being fat...
I am back and I hope to be on here at least once a night. I need support where ever I can get and the chickies here have always been great. I am so torn about the weight watchers. I see the online stuff for free, but I think for now, I better find a meeting and become accountable, because what I am doing now is not working.
Thanks chickies for being here!
