    You sound like you have the mindset that you're determined to hate it. You will, if that's how you think of it.

    Try a ten minute walk, and all the while tell yourself you like it and you're enjoying it. Maybe that won't make it seem so bad. Don't focus on how much you hate it. When I'm taking a spin class and I'm about to die and I start thinking "I hate this, this stinks!" I change my mindset and think "The rest of my life is worth this bit of effort!"

    Way to go, Aunt Meredith!!! I'm very happy :bigsmile: that your diastolic is down!!! And it doesn't look like you have too terribly far to go to get to Goal #2!

    Cheers to you! :drinker:

    Very Good. You sound like you are better with all of this. I really hope so. I have been in the medical field for years and any good doctor will not prescribe phentermine. You don't need it and you just proved it. Good Job.

    I know how frustrating it is to work out and not lose weight. I started working out with a trainer 3 weeks ago and I am obsessed with weighing whether it is that time of the month or if I feel bloated. I get so upset that my husband picked the scale up. He keeps telling me how I am losing weight and I'm like yeah right. Well when I walked into the gym this morning my trainer asked me how my clothes were fitting and they are fitting loose. She was like I can tell you are losing and I said I don't know where and she said let me guess you have been getting on the scale. She told me DO NOT rely just on the scale that I am losing inches and she is turning fat into muscle. I have always hates any kind of exercising now I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!

    Have you thought about maybe getting a WII game system? That would be great for you
