Question:
Take the time out to be proud of yourself!
I felt very proud of myself this morning. It is about 9 degrees outside and I dragged my butt to the gym at 5:30am for the 5th time this week. In fact, I've been going to the gym 5-6 times per week since July. Have you stopped to think about how far you've come and truly thought about how hard you've worked to break bad habits and appreciate how different your life is now? — Yolanda J.

Way to go! I get up at six, five days a week, so I can get to work an hour
early to walk. I also walk on my lunch hour. The temperature was 0 this
morning. Life is good and I thank God for allowing me to have this
surgery. Sapala-Wood Micropouch 12/12/02 – 213/133/125.

<b>Congratulations on doing what you have to do to get to your goal,
I wake up at 5 am and by 5:30 am I'm out the door doing my daily walk. for
about 1 hour and a half. then I come in and start cleaning up the house for
about a hour. then eat and check in on what's happening on OH. around noon
I will get on my exercise bike for a hour and then on my Nortic track for
about 20 minutes. this is a everyday routine except the weekends. and I
enjoy doing it. Before my wls I couldn't even walk to the car and back
without fighting for breath. Everytime I do something new I get so happy
and thank God for blessing me with wls. I have loss 177 lbs in 13 months
just by being determined and following the doctors instructions, I don't
let head hunger rule me. I do not buy foods that will temp me. I believe
that you have to learn now how to control your eating habits because when
you do get to goal, the question will be will you be able to maintain your
new weight, just because you reach goal doesn't mean it's the end of
staying focused. Congrats to you, you are showing great determination and
you will get to goal before you know it.Great job. Hang in there.

I was not a morning person when obese, as a pre-op, and am still NOT a
morning person 2 years post-op! You posties who get up at ungodly hours to
do your exercise deserve great big hugs and you have my admiration...me, I
prefer climbing on the treadmill on the other end of the clock, a much more
civilized 6 or 7 pm!!
