Hi guys,

I'm signed up but I have a really busy weekend already and not feeling so motivated to get up early, drive 30 minutes, and walk a few miles before my real work begins later in the day.

It could be fun and I'd love to meet up with anyone from here who's doing it but I'm feeling very unmotivated otherwise.

My money is already raised so I don't care if I walk or not. Anyone going to be there? 

Highest Wt: 274 / LAP-Band Low: 180 / Sleeved at 233 / Goal: 160!

Sorry I missed your post last week. I have not been on OH much at all lately (either the MD or Lapband board)  I did walk last Saturday and I went by myself!  The walk itself was easy.  Being there alone without friends or family or anyone familiar ON my surgiversary was hard. 

The day before I had such a bad week I wasn't sure I was going to even get up and go but I pushed myself.  I was mine own biggest cheerleader and I knew I owed it to myself to go through with it especially since I raised quite a bit of money and becaus it was my 1 year Lap Band Anniversary.  I was a little emotional when I got there but I did the walk with a breeze which I would have never been able to do a year ago.  No huffing - no puffing and just a tiny bit of sweat on my farhead.  I wore an XL tshirt comfortably and last year I would have needed a 3x.  I was happy with all freebies I got (tons of Atkins shakes and Celebrate Vitamins)  and I even won a raffle prize.  I am going to start attending Dr. Greene's support groups.  After a year out - I need the support right now more than ever! 

I will definitely being the walk again next year!
