|
|
I am finally beginning to feel like I am getting a new lease on life....I have energy coming from out of the blue lately...I guess it is from getting off my butt and exercising some and getting back to the chores. To have been so sick, I now feel great. My breathing still gets short at times but I am not stopping or slowing down because of it. So, it looks like there is life and hope after the quit after all.

You sound wonderful Cowgirl. I hope this new lease stays with you.
I bet it is the exersize, and the non smoking you. That will bring a smile to your face every time you think about it.

It's sure great to hear you're feeling so much better, Kay. Old Gus is really going to need a workout as soon as you're up to that. Oh, and by the way, you're welcome to bring all that energy here. I'm cleaning out the kitchen pantry -- no fun at all. _________________

Kay,
Energy, you mean there is such a thing? Thank God! I'm glad you're perking up and bubbling over. Gives me hope for the future!
Go get 'em girl!

Thanks everyone, I never stay down too long....I like the sunnyside of life...the guy who helped Oprah lose all her weight (Bob Greene) says in his book that the more you do the more you can do. I started moving and found this to be a true statement. He covers alot of the same areas as FFS modules in preparing to exercise and change your lifestyle. Hey, my new fat jeans as I call them, ya know the stretch kind, well they were loose on me today...wow! ALSO, the lizzard has left the building...due to weight gain and muscles coming back....no more stringy hanging thighs! Now, if I just had some legs to boost up into the stirrups I would be find....I look like Tigger bouncing around ole Gus I think he is thinking gotta love her!

Kay you sound GREAT!
Isn't it funny how even we are the most tired...just increasing our activity can give us more energy instead of taking a nap?! Sounds like it should be the other way around.

Hey, Kay, you sound great!! I want some of that tonic you're using too!
Me, I like the sunnyside of life, too, but first we got to find the sun up here in winterland--a little snow today.
Truly, great news about your energy. Gives hope for the rest of us!! Although mine is heaps better without cigs, and will be better yet when I get back to the gym. You know, I think I would have died if I had kept smoking. Now I get to live on that sunnyside again!!
Great post!
