Connie

 

 

Connie is a young mom, whose weight has definitely impacted her life.  She is ready to be healthy and energetic!  Her story:  “I have trouble doing activities with my two children.  My 8 year old is a special needs child and I get very tired trying to keep up with her.  My 10 year old is very aware of my size and is cautious about her weight.  I do not look forward to weekends because my family wants to do something fun, and I find myself sitting out or not going. 

I need to get healthy for my kids and for me.  I want to be around to see them grow.  Right now, I feel like I am on the outside of the world looking in.

328 lbs

    another week down. AAANNNNDDDD 2.8 more pounds down. I am at 271.2, started at 328, thats 57ish pounds lost, gone, never to return. As I worked out tonight somethings, like bending over and touching my toes. Was not so bad. Also I went running outside yesterday, I felt as though I was running on air. Instead of pounding the pavement, which is what I felt when I started to run. I also did 1/2 mile. I was thinking as I was running, those “markers” I would use as a goal to reach for the week. Like just making it down the straight away. Then walk and get my breath and do it again. It was so hard just to make it at the time. then it would be run the straight away and the turn and so on. now its 1/2 mile to the marker. wow, how far I have come. Not ready to do 5k, but …………….

    this past week I was up 3#. I couldnt believe it. There could be some reasons. “health” wise, but not to happy. GGGRRRRRR!!!!!. But my body fat went 2.8% thats good. Looking forward to weighing in this week.
    I have increased my work-out schedule, I now get up in the a.m and so some light stuff. Like streching and some yoga moves, about 20min. I feel good doing it and sets me up for the rest of the day. TTFN-till next week….

    Hello all,I shed 3 lbs this week. I am .5lbs yes 1/2 a pound away from 50 pounds shed. wow. The last time before my first child i was in a program and the most i ever lost was 50lbs. I’m stoked. people are noticing and i want to exercise (usually) now I do get into those old mind sets of not wanting to do anything. two weeks ago I did have that kind of week. I didnt want to do anything, watch my eating no exercise, nothing. Kind of in a hum drum mood. It’s important to not stay there long. It took me three days to get out, by thursay i was back into exercising but I did gain. So I need to be on it everyday. till next week. I gotta run, no really I’m going to go run. see ya next week.
