You Mean 2 Tell Me I Can't Tackle A Flight Of Stairs - Wth?

By Who's That Girl

Went to see the Michael Jackson Cirque De Soleil show tonight. Awesome is an understatement. I knew I was a little out of shape but it was confirmed when i couldn't hike three flights of stairs to the arena. By the time i got to the top of the 2nd flight i didn't think i would make it but i pushed trough.....Unbelievable. Say it ain't so. I can't climb 3 lousy flights of stairs without huffing and puffing. Lord, lugging around the extra weight is such a bummer.

 

The 130lb siamese twin that is attached to me has to go. I'm not sure when this all happened but hopefully I won't have to deal with it much longer. Tomorrow is a new day and will be my first official day of getting things in place for my new lie. I'll start with 30 minutes on the treadmill at 24 Hour Fitness and then I'll come home and clear the pantry of anything that will no longer be needed. If I start now, the transition won't be so hard later. Can't wait for the day that I can run up those same stairs and hen re-read this blog....

    You will have that day when you can climb those 3 flight of stairs without a huff. Have you had your surgery yet or is it coming up? You are on a journey right now and you can create a picture in your mind that you can and will accomplish! Keep it up and thank you for sharing!

    Thanks for the encouraging words. I haven't had surgery yet. I have my appts scheduled through March 5th so hopefully end of March or early April. As the days go by I am feeling better about my decision. Still scared and nervous but it will be ok. I plan on going back to conquer those stairs this year.

    It will happen. i know it will. My surgery was necessary because of my arthritis. The 20 pounds I have already lost have made a huge difference, I am not in constant pain like I was before. I was very scared too, but am very glad I went through it. This is a great site for support. Good luck!
