Hello everyone.

 

Well, my doctor still has not let me join a gym yet.  I do have an appointment with him this Monday.  He told me to wear my surgical shoe for seven days and then put my tennis shoe on for the next 3 days.  Right up to my Monday appt.  Hopefully, I will be able to continue to wear the shoe.  As usual, we will see.

 

     I had an appt., with Cori on Tuesday--Our Nutritionist.  It went very well. She answered all of my questions.  I gave her an update of how I am doing and what I feel I need to do going forward.  Of Course, with her input on everything I told her.

 

     The only cheating I have done is having a piece of cake on 3-2. My Neices Baby Shower. I am

pretty sure I worked that off by now.....lol     I have now been on this path for about 2 weeks.

I am eating 3 meals a day and 3 snacks a day.  I have found that I need a snack after dinner, but only sometimes.  I am still tweaking what I am eating.  Their is a difference between my scale and the Lean Living scale.  Its 3.8 lbs, so when I weigh myself here, I have to add those lbs. to my total.

      

     If, I read it right today, I have lost the weight I gained.  That would be 8 lbs down.  Back where I started with a much better attitude then when I started this Journey.  I love eating certain raw vegies as snacks.  What I need to put in my diet is fruit.  Its in the house, I just do not know why I have not been eating fruit yet.  I will figure this out, as well.

    Hi all.

 

First and foremost I have to stop using exclamation points. It makes my blogs look wrong.

    After my last blog, I dropped into a major depression.  Plus, I was beating myself up on

a daily basis.  And I was doing nothing about my situation.  Laying around eating whatever I

wanted and did not care.

 

    Also, I was considering quitting, but decided not too.  Telling myself things would get better

sooner then later.  Well, it was a little later, then sooner.

So, I have started working out a bit more.  I stopped all the sweets and all the fast food.  Drinking

a lot more water as well.  I have been going to Aladdins, but for lunch with a friend.  Not for

the dinner at 6 on Mondays as of yet.

 

    I Also have to say about my last Blog, is that I was depressed when I wrote that.  It is not up

to my fellow Lighten-up people to contact me.  Its up to me............

 

   I have a doctor appointment on Friday.  Its suppose to be a good visit.  Hopefully, it will be

good news.  If it is, I am going directly to a gym and sign-up.  If I stick with it, maybe, just maybe,

I will be here after 4-26 to finish this up.  Then start on a new and healthy life.

   Hi All,

 

Wow--Wow--Wow

 

   Like I said no excuses!!!!!!!!!!   But, Depression is in the building.  I gained 8 pounds.

 

At First, I thought no problem, I can win this thing.   But, I am not trying at all.    Wow.

 

   Today on the 5th, I weighed myself and have lost nothing, but on the good side

gained nothing either.......I think I really need Pat to come over and slap me!!!!!!

   Ok, here's the thing, I have not had Fast food.  I have had however,  some chocolate.

 

I am exercising a lot more, as much as I am aloud to do. According to my doctor.  I ate pasta for the first time since I started this thing.  I need the support of my Lighten--up people.

   I do not think anyone is reading my blogs!!!!

 

I feel very  embarrassed about gaining weight and I do not think I will see my fellow competitors

anytime soon.  Unless, they are at the weigh-ins at the end of every month and I am their.

    I have been thinking about dropping out ,  just thinking Pat.  Not doing it!!!!!!!!!!

 

Hopefully, my next Blog will be a little bit more uplifting!!!!!!!       Later----------Bob
