Screw Baby Steps!
I’m jumping in the deep end. I will be starting South Beach on Monday and, following the example of Tasha, working out at least twice a day. My husband will be joining me at 5 a.m. for a Walk Away the Pounds DVD. At 9 I will be at the gym for some more cardio and strength training. I am going to try to do a 1 mile walk after dinner, either outside with my dog, weather permitting, or another WATP DVD.
I’ve been doing baby steps for so long and it’s not gotten me very far. At some point I’ve got to grow up and take on full responsiblity. What better time than now? I have little doubt that the test results I’ll get on Tuesday will allow me to do differently. I know it seems a little childish, but if I’m already doing these things, having the doctor tell me to do them will be of little importance. But if I wait for the good Doc to tell me I need to make drastic changes, well, I hate being told what to do.
So no more baby steps. I am boldly stepping out into a new day and a new life, head held high and confidence in my step.
I love it!! Just make sure you dont make your goals too unrealitic, cause then you wont able to do them and youll get down on yourself… and posssibly binge….as i do… whn it get like that .. lol
I am proud of you! Just remember to swim hard!
I know exactly what you mean. I think it is high time for me to do the same thing.
WooHoo! Another one joins the group on the beach! I am starting south beach tomorrow! So we can do this together! How exciting! I have been so overwhelmed by all the dos and don’ts of SOBE but I’m getting the hang of it! I’ve found many websites thru google about it. Can’t wait to buddy up with ya on this new life change!
Wow! I admire your determination and energy! With all of that extra activity alone, you’re gonna see the weight MELT off of you!!! Its great that your husband is right there beside you, too. That’s the best kind of support!!
