I'm two weeks out today and went shopping for a few hours and I feel like I could drop any minute now:( I'm so tired and so winded. I know if I don't push myself that I won't get stronger, but I also have to listen to my body, lesson learned. Some good news is that I noticed just some slight changes...(can we say NSVs:) I THINK my lower back doesn't hurt anymore, could this really be??? Also, my posture has shifted a bit, I think it's because of the belly fat loss so far. One more thing, I can now sleep on my side and I love it. These are itsy bitsy NSVs so I can't wait for the major ones.

Keep on moving moving and good luck ...cant wait to get rid of all this weight and have a positive weight journey

Initially I only went to stores that had shopping carts, that way I could hold the cart and get some walking done. Especially those big stores: Walmart, Target, SAMs Club, Publix, etc. that may help. Know, too, it all gets better.

SandeeD - I noticed that my posture had changed when I looked at my before photos and my two month photos - it was obvious. The posture can certainly make a difference in how your lower back feels. Congrats - but don't overdo the walking!

Hi SandeeD congrats on your successes so far. Try not to get too discouraged. Honestly, it took me 3 months to regain my strength. I had very little stamina. However, it does get better. And as the wieght comes off your energy levels will go through the roof! Best wishes!
