One day orientation yesterday!

Yesterday I joined six other ladies on my journey to a new life, and I must say I am both happy and scared about the choice to have surgery. I worry that because I am not jumping up and down, feeling like I have won the lottery is a really bad way to start. Am I afraid? I have failed so many times before, will I fail again?

 

When I had a heart attack last May I woke up with a clear goal - loose the weight and live to see my daughter grow up. I jumped right on the bandwagon and started Simply for Life the day I was released. Three months and 30 lbs. later I fell off the diet and never tried again.

 

Where is that go getter, I can do it attitude? Is it hidden amongst all the past failures at weight loss? Is it fear of disappointing everyone? How do I kick it?

 

Well, I took step number one, I gave up diet pop yesterday. I have gone two full days without a drink of it, and thats the first time in 12 years (during my pregnancy).

 

Please God, give me the will to face myself. Give me the strength to try and succeed.

    • I’ve used my Xbox for exercise games too and it can be pretty motivating, especially on days when I don’t want to leave the house. Kinect games really do make you move, and after a session with kickboxing or dancing, I always feel like I’ve actually gotten a solid workout. The controller-free setup feels way more natural for workouts than anything I tried on the Wii. Zumba is fun but definitely takes a little time to get the moves right. Lately, when I’m not working out, I spend time trading CS2 skins and finding new guides on this link. There’s a lot of interesting tips if you’re into games outside of fitness too.
