Ok, I admit it, I've been lazy for the past 2 weeks since I've been back from vacation. I was staring at the scale this morning and thinking, the gastric bypass has brought me this far. Down to 261 pounds! 261 pounds! I can't express how wonderful that feels! I was 300+ pounds for so many years that looking at those three numbers 2-6-1 is absolutely amazing to me. But the surgery isn't a magical cure all for everything, I still have to do some work myself. Which includes following the diet plan to the letter and E-X-E-R-C-I-S-E. Not that I've been blowing exercising off completely but instead of the five days a week that I was doing I've only been working out at most twice a week so I am determined to step it up this week. The most that I was working out was 30 minutes those five days a week and I really need to start working out 60 minutes a day for 6 days a week. Yes, aerobics is hard but, in my opinion, is the best cardio activity that you can do next to running. I have a kickboxing video ready and waiting to go as soon as I get off of work today and I will complete it! (Gurh) I am woman, here me roar! =P
