I start my insurance required weight loss program in 2 weeks. My insurance requires a 3 month weight management. I'm so ready to finally get started doing something!

We recently moved into a house, I took it upon myself to mow the lawn today, good lord! I thought I would die! Sad part is the yard is very small... My legs felt like Jello and my thighs also felt like they where on fire when I got done. I had to stop several times to catch my breath. I was breathing so hard my throat was on fire, felt like it was burning as I sucked air in and out!

I'm so tired of being this out of shape and everyday task hurting. Really to get moving to my new lease on life!

Have a great weekend everyone!

lol. You have a great sense of humor. I was rofl, probably because it sounded just like me. I wouldn't even attempt that one. I would have died.

Well after surgery you could open your own lawn company. You will have the energy to mow 100 lawns!

I understand the being tired and mowing the yard. I must say that I don't have the exact story but I hate that I have to take several breathes and reve up my engine to go up and down...

Before surgery I had to cut my grass in stages - mow a little, rest a little (or a lot), sometimes over a couple days. My yard is 1 1/2 acres w/about an acre of grass and 675 feet of street frontage w/more grass (it's a corner lot). It takes two hours to mow w/a push mower. Now I can mow the whole thing (with short breaks every 1/2 hour to drink water), do some gardening, play w/the dogs, clean house, cook dinner, walk the dogs... and STILL have energy to do whatever else I want. I have my life back. :-)

Terry - Wow. Very inspirational for me. There is hope after all.

There certainly is! In addition to increased energy, my back pain, knee pain, and foot pain is gone. All this in four months! :-)

Oh the day my back doesn't hurt!
