Guest guest Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 So Donna I read your post and see all the different things you do and thought I would share this. I just signed up for Tennis lessons all by myself. My daughter was going to do it with me but she is scorekeeping on the same nights as the lessons. I am nervous because it is so different for me but I am not afraid. Before surgery I would have never thought of doing this in front of other people now I am just nervous to show up to the first lesson but yet so excited. Hope this makes since.

I just never started back to carbs, caffeine or sugar. I really do the 3 meals a day, Protein, protein, protein with a little fruit, veg's mainly. Drink all my water, take all my vitamins, and exercise no less than 5 days a week. I do swim aerobics 3 nights a week, I ride my bicycle 1 night a week, I walk everyday to take my daycare children to play at the park and I don't even count this, I do the elliptical 1 day or the treadmill, and tonight I am in a 24 hour Relay for Life for cancer. I love being active now that I not heavy any more and you have to find things you love. I get bored if I do the same exercises so I do lots of things and it keeps me going and smiling. You have to push yourself but you can make it > to this point and be one who says I made my goal. It is a wonderful feeling. Take care. Donna J. > > sherri phillips wrote: Woo Hoo!!!!

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 I felt the same way with the water aerobics, and getting back on a bicycle at 50 years young, but the more I do the more I like. I always invite a lot of people to do these things but schedules or whatever don't always work so I just decided I must do it anyways. Now it don't matter I just make new friends at the pool, where ever and that's fun too. You keep it up, I'm so proud of you.
