Ok everyone, yes I lost a lot of weight in a short amount of time and I am very proud of myself. I think the reasons for this major weight loss is, I am a stay at home mom and when the kids are at school I am finally moving, whether it is getting on my Gazelle, working on the balance ball or finally getting that pile of cloths washed in my basement.
I had lower back surgery where they fused my disks together 2 years ago. Since then I have been afraid to move! I know the surgery was a success but because the doctors took so long to find the reasons for my pain I ended up with nerve damage in my right leg. Taking a walk or just getting up from the couch is a trial. My right leg doesn’t move the way yours does, I have to think about every step I take. I have landed face first in many stores and streets because I was in a hurry. To finally say enough is enough and not give a crap what people think as I stumble along is a big step for me. The weight coming off is just a plus point!
So when you ask what I am doing, my only true answer is moving more and drinking LOTS of water. I don’t skip meals because who can resist a craving if you’re starving. These first few pounds were easy, now the hard part starts because in order to lose more I have to move more and I am looking forward to each moment.
My crew chief ask us to make a small challenge this week and my challenge for myself is to add 30 minutes of excersize everyday. I still haven’t figured out a reward and that’s ok , my reward will be knowing I did it!
My quote for the week is:
The man who can drive himself further once the effort gets painful is the man who will win

I will win both in mind and body!

congrats, I am very impressed! I've been trying to move a lot today, too (ie, housecleaning and stuff, not just exercise) so if I keep it up, I hope I can get results like yours.
