Weight Loss Surgery - taking a stand!

ok, folks. a new low, or high, as it were. i could not button my smallest sized jeans this morning. i'm not happy.

so, here's the ACTION PLAN


no more snacking
no more than 6 crackers per day [doesn't matter that they really are whole grain - they're still CRACKERS!!!!!!]
moving more


and since that last point has been HARD for me to get started doing, i've recruited reinforcements! today started with a 15 minute walk.

i told the ladies at work that i was going to invite them to join me for a 10 minnute walk this morning, and another one this afternoon. we've done the morning walk so far. and it was the right thing to do.

the key point for me is to MAKE THE APPOINTMENT with myself!!!! so, by the end of today, i'll have logged 35 minutes of walking [at least!] and if i finish off the day with some weights, or other strength training, i'll be a happy girl.

scheduling it seems to be the key for me. always has been - probably always will be. but as big a pain as it is, KNOWING this gives me power and control

at least, that's what i'm hoping! and if i get a healthy dose of stress management along with it, so much the better!!!!

OR SWIMMING (hint hint)

You go girl !!

I'm with you jiffy...eat more protein, less carbs and move more!

I haven't been writing things down on Fitday and I will get back to that today...promising you that!

Always helps me to commit to what I need/want to do.

Hows your Journaling?
I'm proud of you. . . you didn't say the jeans shrunk and you didn't beat yourself up. PROACTIVE its just just a facewash for pimply teenagers
You're in the driver's seat and you're getting support
You Rock lady and those jeans are going to be loose on you soon!

journaling?? WHAT journaling?? i'm facing reaccreditation hell, and then after that, proposal hell, finding a place to live, finding a home for the dog, getting into graduate school.

journaling???? i'd rather spend the time walking!!!!!

OR SWIMMING :rofl:

Good for you Jiff!!

Sometimes I don't feel like going to the gym but I drag my saggy butt there and once I'm working out I feel great! You keep going!! Your such an inspiration to all of us !! :)

Way to go! You're getting yourself under control and that's what it takes. Now go do the rest of the walk! LOL
