Thank you. I have a large family, friends and a host of caring people helping get through this. It will take time but as long as I don't dwell in it I will get stronger. I've offering up my work outs in memory of my Daddy.

Well, I am Bacccck. I have found a rec center less than 5 minutes from my job. It has everything that I had to work with when I was at the 'Y' and cost less. The only thing I am giving up is my lunch hour. Instead of taking the full hour I'm doing 15-20 (Gulp), and I have to get there before 4:30 p.m. in order to get in. I…

Today is the first day of the rest of my life. Ok, so I've slacked off, no, I just stopped but now I am back. No longer will I continue to beat myself up for not loosing weight or working out like I know I should. No one is perfect.The fact that I am still here is proof enough that I matter and that I am here for a a…

I try to not eat past 8:00 p.m. If I do it is usally fruit.

Time brings about a change. Today I feel sooooo much better about myself. I guess I was having a pity party-reservation for one:tongue: . I walked five miles yesterday, no four and hope to do five miles again today. :laugh: One only gets out of life what one puts into it. Me, well I plan to have my cup to overflow. I even…

Y'AL GOING TO MAKE ME CRY. :sad: I've felt nothing but positive feeling for all who responded. There is a saying - NO ONE IS WORTH YOUR TEARS AND THOSE WHO ARE WILL NEVER MAKE YOU CRY. I AM A STRONG AND BEAUTIFUL WOMAN WITH MANY ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN MY LIFE AND NO ONE, NO ONE CAN EVER TAKE THEM FROM ME. MY WEIGHT DOES NOT…

Stress is a major factor for me during this time of time of the year. Lately I've been under a lot of stress, A LOT OF STRESS. My blood pressure is high, with meds and I work out to help lower the stress. Well I will get through this. Thanks for your support.:wink:

Sounds like your mom may have the answer. Thanks for sharing:happy:

The sun does work for me and I wear protection while I'm in the sun. Thanks for sharing.:smooched:

Thanks for sharing but if I lived where it is cold and raining most of the time, I would truly be depressed. I need the sun. Living in the mid-west I get all four seasons, which I do enjoy. :drinker: I work out all year long but it seems that during the fall and winter seasons are my struggle.:wink: Thanks for your…

You are right about the lights. I do better when I am in the sunlight. I will look for brighter lights. Thanks for the information.:flowerforyou:

Thank you. Your positive outlook really helps, especially today. I guess I feel so down because it seems that no matter what I do, eat less, work out harder, drink more H20, the weight just continues. It seems that the more I worry about my weight, the more weight I gain.:noway and being in a relationship with an…

The leaves are changing, the temp is cooler and no matter what, I can feel the weight coming on. Right now I am so depressed because this time of the year is the worst for me. No matter how hard or how much I work out my weight just goes up and up:sad: I've talked with a nurse and she indicated that my weight problem may…

Usually the fall and winter months are the worst for me. I become inactive, eat more and may even suffer from SAAD.:cry: Around late Sept. is when I feel the pound creep back on and my motivation goes out the window. I want to continue my program, stay active but I know what happens. Any suggestions?:frown:

Ever have one of those day. Yeah, someone brought in donuts. Glazed from Krispy Kreams. Usually I don't like Krispy Kreams but the box is calling, no, screaming my name, suggesting that I take one, two or more. I've just started this program and really want to succeed. HELP!

I joined yesterday. So far, so good. Keep up the good work.

I just joined today. I wish you all the best on your journey. I used to belong the 'Y' but that got too expensive. I there anyone out there who knows of student who is in the process of becoming a personal trainer? I be the test subject. I not afraid of hard work outs or a person who can work me like a drill sargent.
