Topic: RE: We are all winners!!
These are all great reminders. Particularly for me - remembering we aren't perfect; which I still strive for at times. It's gotten better though - I used to think I had to be perfect just to be adequate. #3 really struck home. Sometimes analyzing and learning from failures means asking for help and setting boundaries; two weak areas for me. I, too, had a "see-food" diet problem. When I asked my family to put their food away (asking for help), they agreed. If they couldn't do it, then I stopped buying the food (setting a boundary).

Bre !! I am so proud of you ... first .. Exercise .. OMgoodness ... I hated it when I first got started ... My doc told me to walk daily .. just a little bit .. I started walking to my mail box ... 20 feet from my door ... then it was around the parking lot ... then around the block ... then one day , while walking with my x ... I looked at him and said ... hey you ... CATCH ME IF YOU CAN . . AND I have been running since . Now I have had some set backss with my Addisons , but guess what ... Today I walked my steps ... 3 flights with out getting winded . SO tomorrow I am going to put on my hiking boots and see how many times I can climb them . I have to get back into shape . I was in the hospital on my back for 4 days .. then here for 5 ... I must get back to the ole Tink
I do not go to the gym as I have designed one here at my home . I love to swim and plan on getting in some swimming next week whle in Florida . Water Walking is the best exercise in the world . And you are right ... the waistline feels it first .... even though i weigh 125 ... while in the hospital I got up to 130 .. some of it is fluid ... but one thing I do not want to do is fall back into the habit of not exercising .
Thank you for such a powerful message .
Love you my sister in Christ ,
Tink
