Ok, I dont know if Im depresed, lazy or what the deal is. I have fitness equipment in my living room just staring at me.

I need to get over my funk. I know how good I feel after I do. For some reason I am avoiding that. I dont even want to go for a walk.

Whatever works Lisa! You are barely a month out..your energy levels will return and before you know it you will be wanting to go to the gym!

I also do a trick for myself when I get depressed or think OMFG I DIDN"T LOSE 90 POUNDS THIS WEEK WTF!!!!!

I have sticky notes I put on my mirror..they say things like "You are beautiful" or "Keep up the great work" or "You can do it"

I know it sounds corny but try it My boyfriend even wrote me one..I woke up one morning to see "Your ass is magnificent" on my mirror

great advise sleve guru !!! thanks will think positive !!!

Exercise can rid the depression and help you sleep better. Start slow and increase. Maybe walking 15 mins twice a day. If I can do it ANYONE can!!!!!

I enjoyed working out when I had a personal trainer 10 years ago. Since I can't afford that option, I bought a membership to a private pool at a 5 star hotel. What a fabulous difference. The pool is gorgeous. The shower/change area is so beautiful. Everyone that goes there is focused and I feel comfortable doing my water walking etc. Some days I even feel like going twice a day.

That is a great suggestion and a very creative approach.

Well I'm working out now and have been about 2 months now. I have to admit, I feel better and I've lost 50 lbs since surgery on Mar 13th.
