Please count me in! Maybe I can motivate a couple of you and in return, please help to push me along.
I am 41, I had my 1st Heart Attack just after my 40th birthday.
I was about 25lbs overweight when I had my Heart Attack.
A year and a half later -- I AM A WHOPPING 90LBS OVERWEIGHT! My cardiologist has threatened me, if I don't lose 20lbs in 3 months, he will refer me to a bariatric surgeon. WHAAAAA?????
No, no, no, I don't want to do it. I just lost 6lbs. in 2 weeks! I need to push on. I could blame the weight on 'quitting smoking' and lack of exercise and medication...but really, at this point, those are just excuses.
Here are the things that I have done to improve my health.
- Quit Smoking. If you need encouragement, I'm here for you.
- Walking. At least 30min 3X per week.
But, I packed on the pounds, even with leading a healthier lifestyle.
I need a buddy or a few.
I need some encouragement! I used to be a hot babe, back in my 20's. Isn't 40 supposed to be the new 20??? I want to be HOT again. I want to say with pride, I'm 40-something, I've had a heart attack and I am living life to the fullest (frugally) and I'm
HOT HOT HOT!!! ...and married! LOL Hubby would like me to add the disclaimer, "look, but don't touch"!
We can all be "Hot (coupon) Mom's"
