Hi guys,

Well, today marks 3 months after surgery. I think I need a buddy/mentor. LOL! I have a tendency to forget about eating, taking meds on time, but the BIGGEST issue is I forget about exercising.

I am losing -- slowly, as expected, but losing. Although I had gained 1.5 lbs when I went for my first fill on Dec. 10th, which was disappointing.

I think what I need most is encouragement to exercise. That's my biggest problem, I really do think.

So, perhaps I need a mentor/buddy?

Tara,

I know where you are coming from with the exercise. In fact I don't think that I even went on a tread mill until I lost my first 60lbs. The thought of me exercising was like death be upon me.

I joined LA Fitness and stayed with a trainer for 1 year. Within 3 weeks that man made me love exercising. I never thought it would ever happen but now if I don't go I first get crabby and then I get depressed. Once you begin to notice the differences in your clothes and the way you look and but doubt, the way you feel, you would begin to love it.

It is something that is for you, internally. Try not to think of it as a necessity for weight loss. Your brain begins to need it and there is no turning back.

You can do this Tara. Don't think that you can't. We have had to have a change in our minds and in the long run you are going to feel absolutely FANTASTIC!
