Happy Saturday to Everyone
I've walked the boardwalk (1 lap=1 mile) everyday for the past 5 days...it's getting somewhat easier. I've also been practically starving myself for the past 3 days, and was disappointed to see that the scales still read 225 lbs.!
I'm thinking, maybe, like Sami, it's because my metabolism is slowed because of my meds...I'm on Paxil, Zyrtec and Norvasc. Does anyone know if any of these 3 meds does add to one's weight? I'd love to get off all 3 anyway.
Sami: Try not to get discouraged.
I know exactly how you feel. But, I guess, we need to remember that we didn't put this weight on overnight, so it's not going anywhere overnight, either. I'll pray for your metabolism and efforts to be rewarded, though.
Betty Crocker: I'll pray that your son's transition with Kindergarten will improve daily and that your stress level
will be minimized. Maybe, you'll be encouraged to walk away the stress and we can compare notes on how long we walked, etc.
Wilma: I too, love ice cream...but oh my!
I was looking at the fat content of ice cream the other day...it's horrible! Have you tried frozen yogurt? It's lower in fat content...and I don't see all that much difference. Do you walk daily too?
Gary: Praise God things went well with your nephew. Thanks for your encouraging words about walking!
Chocolate: That's great that you're walking so much!
I hope to increase my walking session to 1.5 miles starting next week. Please pray for me.
I want to thank everyone for being a part of this message board. It is such a blessing and encouragement to me. If you think of it, please pray that I will see some results, albeit small, soon!
