Back again too, if at first you don't succeed .......

Ok, can I tell you how many times I have been there in the past!! Sometimes we just need a jump start. First please see your doctor because if it is depression it may not change without help. It is also a good idea to get blood work done to make sure there is no medical problem. If you pass those tests, it could be that…

Congrats !!

I am truly grateful to have my morning cup of coffee, in my own kitchen, in my own home, in my safe neighborhood. We tend to forget when we are so comfortable in our own homes that there are so many who are not. God has been good to me.

Agreed - there is no magic pill ! If there was none of us would have a need be here :sad:

Good way to start the day Joshua

me too!

The rain stopped long enough for me to get out and I did. I am considering doing a morning and early evening walk

it's a rainy day today......trying to decide how to get my walk in or dust off my exercise bike ? I am down another 1/2 pound for a total of 3 pounds so far. I am happy!

Polly3274, I wish I could walk with my little dog but she is stop and go, stop and go :yawn:

Yesterday was a beautiful walking day but I was only able to get 15 minutes in. I had to take my 5 year old granddaughter with me which slowed things down :smile: Good news.....my daughter, who live around the corner from me, bought a new treadmill yesterday, which means I have use of it on bad weather days.

Wonderful!!

have you talked to your trainer about how to eat?

I almost always give in to my cravings and try to be reasonable with them. I have found that ignoring them does no good. Trying to eat something else never works and I wind up eventually eating what I am craving and what I eat to avoid eating what I am craving :sad: Getting distracted by becoming involved in an activity…

How much time do you already put into exercising? If this is a new start for you then begin with 10 minutes at a time and gradually add to it. If you have a treadmill or indoor bike then make use of them. If you can get out the front door for a brisk walk even better. Yoga and exercise videos are free right on the…
