Well, the truth is, I'm not really dancing yet even though I would love to be. I have always been so self conscious when I end up dancing with friends or my boyfriend. I feel that everyone is looking at me and judging on the obvious. *No, not that i have two left feet* but that I am indeed a BIG woman with a little bit of rhythm jiggling to the beat. Trust me, I know that It shouldn't matter what others think, I should be just having a good time but easier said than done. I have been on this forum a couple of times with different threads and then left for different reasons that were all just personal stuff, nothing to do with the people on here at all. I have met some awesome people who are very supportive on WLF. My reason for coming back this time is that I am making some really positive changes in my life. I am receiving much support from my friends and family and I really want to restart my diary to help me remain focused.
Michelle :D
 
Excellent - welcome bac adn I am here with ya every step of the way!!!Your one hell of a woman and you shouldn't care but your righ tit is easier said than done...

Im so glad your back!!!Let's shed this weight together this will be the year!!!After all we owe this forum something - we met here!!!
 
I agree, we actually owe this forum a lot, I got a life time friend out of it, hmmmmm, im supposed to lose, yet i gained a lot. :D
 
So, I am not the best at having the motivation to actually work out at the gym that i pay a membership to. That would be why I still weigh over 300 lbs despite having a membership for almost 2 years. I walked into the gym last weekend and asked if i could have a personal trainer. (possibly a short moment of insanity) They sat down with me and went over the financial aspect of it all and i said "Oh no, I can't afford that". She replied with... "We have a payment program" (ummm..yay for me?)
I met my trainer Shelly, who will be with me 3 days a week for the next 3 months. She is a really nice lady, well...other than the part where she says to me " Over the next 3 months you will really hate me, and I'm ok with that" and then she smiles. She is very excited about our new relationship.
I am too actually, I probably sound a bit negative but really I am a combination of thrilled and freaked out. (I just wish she didn't sound so thrilled to cause me pain...lol"
This will be my moment to take a hold of my weight and actually let it go. I will be posting pictures as soon as Cerella shows me how...lol
Michelle :)
 
good for you for getting the personal trainer.. remember that she's working for you -towards your goals... so really communicate with her... and ask questions... If she is causing you pain - Say so... and adjust accordingly...

Thanks so much maleficent, We really did go over what i wanted and what the best method to do that was. She seems quite good, and has a history of working with people that have a significant amount of weight to lose. You are right, i will communicate with her the effects and how im feeling. I'm totally on unchartered territory for myself. lol
Michelle :)
 
and since i"m a busy body - don't also forget that a fair portion of weight loss is diet as well - so do your best to get that under control...

You will do this Michelle I know you can and Im gonna redo it too!!!This will be there year for both of us - if you have anymore questions about pictures just call :)
 
Trainers are so funny. I think they actually enjoy being hated because they know at the end of it all, you'll thank them. My trainer is a sadomasochist for sure.

lol.... so true, Shelly really seems to be enjoying herself. :) But, she get whatever she wants to out of helping me work out as long as it works for me.
 
Well, today has been a slow day for me because i am still fighting this bug that has knocked me on my butt all week. I was supposed to meet with my trainer today for our first " session" but I postponed until tomorrow. I will do the best that i can, but I know I'm not super strong. We are going to do all of the weight (fun!), measurements (even more fun!), fat ratio (omg will the party ever stop!!!) and posture (im ok with that one..lol). I want to get all of that info so I can post it on here.
I will let everyone know how i did, and then i will probably go to bed...lol
Michelle :D
 
Omg! I am really sick too, with the same bug that knocked my fiance out for a week! I actually have half a mind to go work out tomorrow regardless of whether or not I'm sick because it's supposed to boost my immune system. I mean, if the combination of orange, antibiotics, cough syrup and airborne isn't going to help me get over this, I'll try anything.

Hope you get well soon!
 
lol...I hear ya, I hope you both feel better soon. My boyfriend is just getting it, so im sure he is going to be a wee bit grumpy this weekend as he Hates being sick. poor guy
;) Michelle
