Now I have trying to lose weight a number of times, too many too count. Recently I have had friends that have been losing weight, and they look great. Some are doing programs where you drink your meals or have had gastric bypass. I have never wanted to go under the knife nor do I want to spend 400 dollars a month and drink my meals. Today I decided that it was up to me and I was going to start walking. My husband wants the best for me, but when it comes down to it he's not supportive, asking for candy, pop, chips from the store. When I ask my family to walk with me nobody wants to. So today I decided to walk by myself. My goal was to walk around the block. I put on shoes, not good ones and started walking. I will probably have blisters and sore ankles tomorrow, but I did it. I may have thighs that are rubbed and sore, but I did it. I walk slow so it took me 1 1/2 hours to do it, but i did it. Now I know that seems like a long time but I live in the country so my block is 4 miles long. My husband thought I was crazy and maybe I was, but I needed to prove it to myself that I could do it, and I did. I'm very proud of myself and hope to do it 3 times a week.
