Hello, I wanted to share a quick story with you.  I have a friend that is going to celebrate her 5th anniversary this fall and has put on a few pounds....  Haven't we all!!! She pretty much wrote what she ate down, drank  her water and got most of her protein in, she followed the rules pretty well.  She decided to get real and admitted the one area she was not doing was exercising.... She has added this to her daily agenda and guess what?  She has dropped 6 lbs!!!  YIPEE!!!!! So my friends if you are doing all the right things to get back on track and it's not happening, maybe this is the one missing link!!! Get moving my friends!!! Take care, Kathy

I AM HAPPY TO ADD THAT I HAVE WALKED EVERY DAY SINCE MY SURGERY 19 MONTHS AGO, AND I BELIEVE THAT IS WHAT HAS ADDED TO MY WONDERFUL WEIGHTLOSS OF 110LB AND BEING ABLE TO MAINTAIN IT FOR THE LAST 6 MONTHS. I HAVE ADDED OTHER EXCERSISES BUT WALKING IS MY MAIN ONE AND I LOVE IT. I NOT ONLY FEEL PHYSICALLY GOOD BUT EMOTIONALLY AS WELL. THANKS.

I FORGOT TO ADD THAT I FEEL VERY GUILTY IF I DON'T WALK, AND THERE HAVE BEEN A COUPLE TIMES WHERE CIR****TANCES HAVEN'T ALLOWED ME TO DO SO.

Hi  Kathy! Its SO true! I have been slacking off a little bit lately b/c of being OVER busy, but after the 4th I am going to have to get back on the exercise track. I just feel better when I do it!

Hi TracyB, WE all do that from time to time and I think when we do get off track it helps us to realize what a difference it does make. Enjoy the 4th and we want to see you here afterwards letting us know how you are doing!!! Take care, Kathy

I love to dance!  I love to ride horses!  I am taking lessons in both.  It is costly but it is an investment into my life.  I want to add more dance classes too.  There is a theater dance school here that I am taking Irish dance in and I think I may  pick up tap and broadway dance this fall.  Finding a form of exercise you like helps so much!!  I lost 20 lbs that I had gained and I am feeling so much better.  I need to practice though, that is my downfall.  Yikes!

Are we going to see you on Dancing with the Stars?  This is so great!!!  Finding something you love and doing it is key to staying with it.  Thank you for the example of having fun and losing at the same time!!! Take care, Kathy

Teehee well, I'm no star and ballroom doesn't appeal to me.  I like the dances that don't require a partner.  It is fun to have fun!! Paula

It totally makes a difference. If I get on my treadmill and do my 4 miles a day, I can easily lose 3 lbs in one week!! If I'm eating "perfectly" that is. Those that have had wls, are really doing themselves a disservice if they don't do exercise. You can lose SOOOO much faster. Dawn
