I have been really bad lately. My diet is poor and I've not exercised in over a week, I think. I need to lose 17 lbs for surgery and I don't think I've lost one lb yet and this process started at the end of July. Tonight I'm going grocery shopping for the week and I'm going to get my protein drinks also. I plan on starting my 1500 cal diet that my NUT gave me, tomorrow and start walking again. I was doing so good but then just quit like I always do when I lose a little. Please help me get this started and to stick with it so I can have surgery. I need someone to tell me to knock it off and get busy!! Although my mom and husband are good at that I just don't listen when they get on me. I wish I had someone close by to exercise and diet with!! Please help!!!

Amc me too!!! Let's try this together!!! I am also on a 1500 Cal diet. I downloaded MyFitnessPal yesterday to my phone and boy it adds up more then I thought

I have myfitnesspal too. I have the same username on there. What's yours? Yes let's do this!!

Its the same kisersassy. I feel like I am on my own. But really if I think about it I am. My husband is ok with me having surgery but he refuses to change any eating habits not even changing coffee. He will not walk with me or anything.

Sounds like my husband. He more than wants me to have the surgery but won't "do" anything either. I'll look you up on myfitnesspal.

I love swimming Cheryl unfortunately I am having to take the pool down this weekend for the winter

I don't have any kind of gym or pool nearby. I'm out in the sticks. But that doesn't mean I can't walk or ride the bike at my work. I just gotta get started. I like the bowling game too but it's been forever since I've done it!! We don't even have our Wii hooked up anymore. Need to do that too!!
