Hundred Plus Pounds to a New Me

I'm a 47 year old bald fat guy that is sick and tired of being SICK AND TIRED. Actually my health is not as bad as it could be with just some blood presure problems and sleep apnea (it really could be much worst). I got my c-pap machine about 6 months ago and I'm finally getting about seven hours of sleep a night, but for four years I was getting zero sleep. I decided to make a New Years resolution in 2007 to get the exercise my body has been screaming at me to get. I went to all the local gyms ...

I decided to make a New Years resolution in 2007 to get the exercise my body has been screaming at me to get. I went to all the local gyms and evaluated their plans and made my decision on one three days ago (January 9, 2007). I understand that this process is like eating an elephant, ONE BITE AT A TIME, so I started on the treadmill 20 min. and the bike 10 min. and introduced my weak muscles to some of the weight machines for about 10 min. Today (day three) I'm up to 30 min. on the treadmill, 15 min. on the bike and about 20min. with the weights and I feel GREAT!

Hi, thought I'd stop by and wish you a great weekend. I'll see you in the pit where it's nice and warm (today was -20, but with the wind chill felt like -32)
Hugs Shirley

Hay BABAY!! :) Things are going great! I am back to working full time and going to school part time. I only have about 6 months left of school!! I have been doing great with food and ok with exercise. I have lost almost 10 lbs so far!

How are things with you?

LOL, thanks Mike for the well wishes. I can't get anything past my SP friends! emoticon That's been part of the reason why I've been slacking on the group. I can't keep my eyes open! emoticon LOL! But I'm hoping in the next couple weeks that will get better as I get closer to the second trimester. Yay for Sparkbabies! LOL

Thanks for the blog love! It has been quite a week but I think I am back and I am happy about that. Afraid to step on the scale tomorrow but I already have a serious workout planned for tomorrow. Sometimes life (or death) gets in the way. Moving forward...
Hugs, Nancy
