miteslur's Journal, 16 January 2008

WOW! WOW!!! WWOOWW!!! I just got done watching the Oprah show I recorded on Monday. Oprah and Bob Greene's Best Life Challange 2008! I am unashamed to confess that I pretty much spent the whole show crying! lol I can't begin to tell you how much that show means to me! The video has been marked and no one will be recording over that show! Talk about perfect timing for me! I so needed to see that show! If these people can do it...why can't the rest of us?! Obesity is the leading cause of preventable death! WOW!
I was astonished to see the gentleman who lost 140lbs in LESS than a year, simply by making "a life style change and exercising". He followed Bob Greene's program, online, and has succeeded! He says life is fun now! THAT is what I WANT!
And, the gentleman who is over 600 pounds, that goes and exercises everyday, without fail, 5 days a week! What an example he is setting for those of us who say "oh, I just don't feel like it today." Excuses, excuses!
I'm seriously thinking I want to sign up on TheBestLife.com.
Tonight I plan to hit the gym. My 2nd workout day of the week.
It is my year for a change. It HAS to be! I'm tired of feeling like a fat whale.
My biggest challange, which is going to be my toughest, is giving up the alcohol and the chocolate. Somehow I must conquer this if I want to make the change.

It was a great show. I have the book and the biggest point he stresses is moving more. Even if it is just walking 20 minutes a day. He says getting moving is crucial to long term weight loss. That is exactly what i have to start doing better at. I loved the part when they said, so many people say they will join a gym after they lose some weight, and there he is 600 lbs and leading water aerobics. very inspiring!!
