OMGosh...what the heck is wrong with me???  I cannot seem to get motivated and get back to the gym! 
I was going regularly several days a week, then cut down to 2 or 3, broke a toe and stopped going.  Now, my toe is better and I cannot seem to get up off of my butt!  Seriously, my tailbone is hurting because I have become addicted to Netflix, some TV shows, facebook, and whatever else I've found to do while sitting. 
My daughter has started with volleyball practice 6 days a week, she was my exercise partner most times that I went, so I use that as an excuse. I will plan to drop her off at practice, then go onto the gym while she is there, then pick her up after my workout.  That hasn't worked, because I make all sorts of excuses to not do it...have to grocery shop, bathe the dogs, clean house...something. 
I am so very close to getting under 200 pounds.  The last time I weighed, I was 201.  Am I subconsciously sabotaging my progress? 
 I have to go have some labwork done today, then take my daughter to her practice.  I WILL go to the gym when I drop her off!  ...maybe?

Janet, just go! It's as simple as that, you'll feel better & be glad you went. Push those excuses to the side and get yourself to the gym!!! 199 is sooo close, this may be what gets you to it that much quicker!!!

Thank you so much!  I did go...not as long as before, not as many upper body strengthening exercises as before, but I'll build it back up.

How about, if I promise you that you will feel GREAT after going?

 You can come back on here and tell us you went (in a new thread entitled - I DID IT, NOW WHERE'S MY CONGRATULATONS, *****ES? -  and we'll pat you on the back and tell you how proud we all are for you being a poster child for RNY?

So, I EXPECT to see that post later on today ...  or else, mean old sanctimonious biddy will come down on your couch sitting ass!

New thread posted! :D  I did it!  Thank you so much!  I just needed another "voice" or two to make me get up and move!  What would I do without OH and great people like you?  
And you old?  Yeah, right! 
Give me a few more weeks at the gym and you'll play hell trying to catch me! 

Thank you bunches,

Janet

How about you go to the gym today.  How about you go, and stay for at least 10 minutes.  If you wanna leave after 10 minutes, and go grocery shopping or watch Netflix or whatever, then do that.  But just go for 10 minutes.

You can do anything for just 10 minutes, right?

I went and did my usual bicycle, but not as many upper body strengthening exercises.  I will build it back up, though. It was good, actually.  And, yes, I can do just about anything for 10 minutes...not the elliptical!  lol  I'm working my way to get on that thing. 

Thank you so much,

Janet
