 |  2 miles!
Well everyone I am happy to say that I am up to walking 2 miles now! YAY!..
I am so looking forward to February when I can start going to the gym.
I go back to the doc Dec to get my 3 month(by his calender) checkup.
I am hoping to be down a bit more before then.

Congratulations sweetie. I am sure that you are really excited about this mark. I understand what you mean about excitement for going to the gym. I notice the days I don't go I am a lot more cranky and feel as though my day goes slower. I am really trying to pump it up right now at the gym cuz I am so close to my under 200 mark and I want to look my best at hubby's Christmas party for his squadron. Last year I went at my fattest pre op and this year I want to show off...lol. Keep up the great work and you will get there.

Awww thanks Michelle. I will admit that I am a lot farther size wise than I ever really expected to be at this point. I promise to post pictures as soon as I go below 200 to show off my new dress. A few priveleged people have already seen it, but I am trying to hold off on an official post until I reach that mark. It is actually the dress in my new avatar, but you can't fully see it there, just the top. I love this dress and am so glad that hubby bought it for me.

Michele, congratulations on getting your walk in!
Exercise boosts your mood as well as encouraging your weightloss.
Janae, I keep forgetting to say, you're looking mag in your new avatar.
Okay, we'll wait, but I hope you'll let us see you and your DH together in your new dress and his dress uniform. I'm sure you two will make a beautiful picture.

GREAT JOB EARTHY, 
KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK! You are doing mighty fine. I never in the beginning, imagined ever walking 2 miles. My mile at the time was more than enough. JUST THE THOUGHT OF IT. UGH!!!!!!  Now, it,s a breeze, and I love the fact that I can get home and not feel like I am going to literally pass out. Like DOC told me, you walk to where you are comfortable walking and then pick it up. ONE STEP AT A TIME THOUGH. LOL CONGRATS.

Hey! Two miles!! Great job! Do you remember your first walk in the hospital after surgery?? I thought I would just collapse and then what would everyone do??? LOL
My surgeon said to walk two miles a day and I thought, "Ya, right..." When we look back, we are all so blessed! I'm so happy that you are up to two miles!! Yippee!! I live in the country, so for more exercise I took hubby and the kids to the neighbor's farm on a walk to hand deliver Christmas cards. Do you have a 'destination' to walk to or do you do the treadmill?

| know what you mean sheliamae!
I know what you mean about the living in the country thing. lol One way I walk, I have 2 loose biting dogs. So that way is for sure out. The other way I walk, I have a pitbull snarling and snapping. He is on a chain, but I pray every darn day that it holds out. lol I am willing to take the risk though. SMART GIRL THOUGH, FOR HAVING OTHER WAYS OF GETTING OUT THERE AND MOVING.

I walk around the neighborhood with my neighbor. We try and go a little later in the afternoon/evening now, cause everyone has their lights up.
I wish I lived more in the country though. I love the solitude and quiet.
