Back in the gym
Well, after over a year or more, I am back in the gym. I started back yesterday and even made an appointment with a trainer to help hold myself accountable.
I need someone in my face. Today we took body
measurements and a fitness test (I did pretty good he said) I weighed in at 217.
That was good for me considering I went into surgery on Feb 7th weighing 260. I have to improve on my eating.
I'm not eating that much at all, but that was the same fight I battled before surgery, so have to use my tool and eat. I have lost alot of muscle, so now I have to build alot back. I have to get me some muscle like Susan.
Pray for me, doing this working out alone, without Trent is new for me. Deb





You go girl....I am thinking of joining a gym also. It was so good to see you. You look great. I have not worn makeup in over 2 years. Guess what? I bought makeup yesterday and put it on. I looked good. And I did it because you inspired me too. I feel more and more confident every day. You are my inspiration. Thanks so much for being so great. Love Jennifer

I am so glad you did that for you.
I have found that when I look good, I feel good. I never leave the house without doing my hair and makeup, even if I have on shorts and t-shirt or even if I am going to the gym. There are some of those women that look great without make up, I am not one of them. Now if I'm hanging out on the beach or in the pool, well those people that look at me just have to suffer. LOL I don't do it for anyone but me. It makes me feel good about me. Its those little things that I have found that help give me confidence about myself. I don't think that I am beautiful or something, but by making myself look a little better, people don't run away scared.
Keep doing all that you are doing, you are gradually pulling yourself up by the bootstraps. This surgery and what got us here in the first place, is hard. You are doing great. Just remember, just because you are a mom and a wife, you are still an individual. You deserve nothing but the best of what this big 'ole world has to offer.
