Feeling Kinda Lame...

O.K. it is my confession time.  I need to put it out there and start being more accountable for my bad behaviors.

1.)  I have not been taking ALL of my vitamins everyday (I skip my iron a lot which I need because my Ferritin levels are already low).
2.)  I have not been exercising at all for 2 weeks now!
3.)  I have been slacking on the calories and protien intake on certain days.  Some Days I am not getting in nearly enough calories (I am skipping meals like I did pre-op) and then the last couple of days I have really slacked on my protein numbers.
4.)  Most days I do not get all of my water in...

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ME???

I know all of these things are contributing to me having lower energy then I should after loosing all the wt. I have recently.  So, I do not understand why I have been slacking? 

I am going to fix all of this, but I need support and encouragement!

OK here is the good news...

1.)  I do care, and want to do well everyday... it is my health!
2.)  I have lost 46 lb since surgery, and a total of over 74lb this year!
3.)  I am almost in a size 12 pants (I can even button them, just need a little more room in there)!

This is my goal-

1.)  To start back at the gym on Monday
2.)  At least get all my protein in everyday
3.)  Really try harder to take all my vits everyday (tough because I have a ton to take due to pre-op deficiencies).  With my meds & vits I take well over 20 pills/tabs per day (I am afraid to count)! lol! 

But, I am going to hit it, and see if I can get my energy level up were I want it to be!

Happy Holidays Everyone!  Here is to The New Year, and new goals to take us even closer to where we want to be!  Great health in 2009!
 

Were you reading my journal?  I honestly think that we all slip up now and then.  Everyday I try a little harder to do better.  Hopefully we will both increase the vitamins and exercise.  I am trying, and I know you are too.

Good luck to you,

Jeannie

sounds like a page in my journal as well.  I going to pray for the both of us to improve on the things we need to.  I make the effort but just come up short some days...I'll get the results from my first set of labs on Wednesday and that might just be the fire I need under my butt!

It is good to know I am not the only one who struggles!  We all need to do better, and everyday is a new day!

I went back to the gym yesterday!  I am sitting here typing trying to convince myself to go again today, since I only did cardio.  I am not ready to hit the weights yet, I need to build up some endurance again first...

Keep me posted on how you all are doing!  We will kick each other into gear! lol!
