[QUOTE="Just keep swimming, post: 31047, member: 211"] Fran, Congrats! I still can't do much in the way of "real exercising" but I am doing alot of stretches and walking. I have kept off the 10 lbs I lost while in the hospital and have lost another 5. I feel better, but have about 45 lbs more to go. I really don't care how long it takes, just want it to STAY off! I am doing a diluted version of the Adkins diet, trying to keep the carbs low and the proteins high. It is giving me alot more energy and I feel so much better. I can't do away with carbs all together, makes me feel weird, so I do have a little cereal in the a.m. and do have one slice of whole wheat bread with lunch. Snacking much less and trying to walk a little further each day. I went shopping over the weekend and was able to move down a size in the jean shorts I bought. I feel like I am in such a better place with watching meal portions and snacking less and drinking much more water now than Diet Coke with lime. I do splurge and have one class of Difficult Child daily but that is a huge improvement over the all day drinking of Diet Coke I was doing. Anyways, loving this taking care of myself business! It's about time!! Hugs and continued luck, Vickie [/QUOTE]
