Debbie Cousins's Journal, 08 June 2024

Well, I took a total DAY OFF today! Calories over 2,300 for the 2nd day in a row. NO WALKING today, after going 6 miles a day for 32 consecutive days. Having the toe surgery coming up on Friday, and knowing I am forbidden to walk for 2-3 weeks kinda messed with my head. I figured, “since my record is going to be broken in a few days anyway, what’s the use pushing myself?” Because of all the other stuff I have going on medically, which will prohibit me from walking, bending, jostling myself, and going in the sun or getting my foot or leg wet, I realized that the ONLY time I can take the kids to enjoy our Busch Gardens and Water Country USA tickets is THIS WEEK. Going to BG on Monday and WCUSA on Wednesday. I’m NOT ready for this so soon!

You inspire me Debbie. With all the wildness of life, you have pushed thru, kept going and made do in tough times. I'm 71...and in my head, I can still do what needs to be done but physically, I am whipped...chronic pain, numbness in legs in 5 minutes of standing etc. I want to do more! Prayers for you in the time ahead and for the surgery coming up. Be gentle with yourself.

I have also had two bad days but lets not make it three. Sunday is a new day and we can turn things around to get back on track. We can do it.

you can do it Debbie we are all rooting for you, i have lost all my weight thru diet only and I still eat out at restaurants I do try to stay at 1700cal but I have been eating 2,000 or 2100 calories a day since my knee replacement surgery it's been a month now and I am grateful and blessed that God has been helping me loose weight so I could get surgery to get my knee fixed, as before surgery and for the last 7yrs all I could do is walk/stand up for 3-4min without something to lean on and most of my days I was just existing not living life just going from my bed to the couch and sometimes going for a ride with my husband he's been doing everything for me I had knee surgery and am going out more walking around more and doing more than I ever did I'm still healing and walking around with a limp but that willgo away as I continue to build the muscle back in my leg and knee that I lost way before surgery. Continue to keep on your journey even if you can't walk because I am living proof that you don't have to worry about exercising if you can't do it just continue to count your calories and try to stay in your range . I myself will be trying to get back to 1700 calories I been overeating and stay hungrier after surgery but I'm going to get back to eating in my range.

Keep persevering, Debbie. Start over any time of day and don’t allow little slips to derail you.
