Hey All,
Just a short note for posterity's sake. this is the last week and today is the last day of my weight loss management program so officially i no longer have to eat Optifast products. I have a few products left however, so i'll just eat them during the next week cause i don't believe in throwing food away unless it's ruined. I go down to one product a day and that should take me into next week about Friday i think.
Hope you all are well and happy.
Blessings.

Hi. F.S.
Today was interesting. We went to Rhonda’s senior’s chair stretching class this morning. There were allot of people there and I’m thinking this might have thrown me a bit. The class is about half and hour long and you’re sitting in chairs (of course) and working with very light weights (I think ½ lbs to 1 lbs). the music reminds me of Richard simmon’s sweating to the Oldies, very upbeat and fast paced. Unfortunately, I was sitting right in front of the music and had a hard time hearing both Rhonda (the instructor) and my sister, Karen, trying to give me instructions. I caught what I could and just faked the rest. Rhonda did say that she rarely varies the routine so once I’ve learned the different ones I’ll be able to follow along a little better. So, I’ll have to work on the moves at home. The class is twice a week, but we’ve decided to just go one day for now, Tuesdays. Karen felt like she really got a workout. I felt like it was more of a moderate workout for me because of not knowing all the movements. There was a point there where I was just doing my own thing. In retrospect, I think this has bothered me a little. I kinda felt silly not doing what everyone else was doing, which is weird considering I couldn’t see them, but I think it was that they could see me. Rhonda told me that in the beginning, allot of the ladies (its an all women’s class) felt like they couldn’t keep up. But I think my reactions were delayed about this. I felt a little discombobulated after getting home and kind of binge ate some funyuns that shouldn’t have been in the house in the first place. But I didn’t really examine what was going on with me.
Next came yoga class. And here is where it gets “interesting”. For those of you who do or have done yoga (stretching or otherwise), has this ever happened to you? We did floor exercises today and even though my hip was acting up I was able to keep up with about 90% of them. I did have to stop towards the end and miss out on one movement that my hip just wasn’t going for. But then, the last part, the cool down relaxation part…the part I usually enjoy…just freaked me out. At the end of it, I burst into tears. It wasn’t quite wailing, ubt hell, it was close enough. I was so embarrassed. We were lying with our legs stretched out, you know, just lying on your back on the floor. No big, right? But for some reason I was just uncomfortable. And not physically uncomfortable but well I can’t explain it except to say I felt a little unsafe in that position. I couldn’t relax to save my life and after awhile, I felt like I was being strangled or something. I should have sat up right away I think, but nope. I tried to hold out and work through…well, I did hold out and make it to the end, but then when we were sitting up and doing the closing pose, I just broke down. I couldn’t hold it in and believe me, I tried. I had no idea what was going on with me. Deb, our instructor was great. She came over, gave me a hug and let me cry it out on her shoulder. I got tears all in her hair. She says that it happens sometimes and you may not know why. Just the body has to release some things. It’s a great thing our class is so small. There’s just four of us besides Deb. And I’m comfortable with everyone, of course. My therapist is there too and so everyone was great. I was just a bit embarrassed, but I guess I’ve gotten over that a little. But, good lord, is this gonna happen again? Eeeek!
I’m a little afraid to try and sus this out in my head as to what’s going on. Not sure if I want to bring it up in therapy tomorrow, though. Probably should. (sigh) Chricke! (hope I spelled that right).
Okay, gotta go plan tomorrow’s meals. Thank you for reading, you all. I appreciate it. Blessings.

Hey happy People!
Well, it ain't much, but i'll take it. don't know what it is about me getting down to 380. actually, i should be very grateful cause last week was EXTREMELY stressful and i did do some stress eating so any loss is a bit of a surprise.
today was my last weight loss class. I am officially back on Surgery track and kinda on my own. I've got one more week of eating Optifast products and then i think that's it. Since i've already lost the required 20 lbs i wonder when they'll schedule my surgery now. Unless...(horrors)...they start me all over again. Eeeek! today, in class we talked about "barriers" to exercising. barriers humph, i just usually call them excuses, but i guess they're trying to be kinder and gentler. so, i found out my three problem areas were (and this is no surprise to me) social barriers, lack of will power barriers and lack of opportunity, i think. Of course the social part bordered on my blindness, because without my sister's help, doing allot of the things we do would be much more difficult for me. Like working out at the gym (she has to program my equipment for me when i move from machine to machine) and even walking (if i've never walked it before, i may not make it home). will power is well, i just don't wanna and have no energy to wanna. It's much more comfy on the couch. Lack of opportunity just kinda means for what i can do at home, it's limited so i get bored and turned off. they gave us some strategies for each one. There were other barriers too but these were mine. Honestly, the social one is something i have to work on. I should still be able to go to a gym, but i don't like bothering the staff to have them setting machines for me every time i move. I can take classes, but that requires some before hand work of finding out if the instructor will have an issue with a blind person in class and how do i learn these moves... so i just need to work up the courage to put myself out there and ask...ask...ask. My will power is getting better. I can't say i like exercising, but i'm getting so accustomed to it that it feels weird when i don't do it on the day i'm supposed to. and lack of opportunity just means i need to find other ways to work out when i have to do it alone.
to that end, in class, we had a Silver sneakers instructor named Rhonda. she told Karen and me about a class she teaches for seniors of course that is based on chair exercises. she told me that Silver sneakers is also for disabled people of any age. Yea! we are invited to a complimentary class tomorrow at 9:30 a.m. to see if we like it. I'm game. i needed to ad something to Tuesday because well, the yoga classes aren't strenuous so we should be able to do both. there! opportunity and i should fit right in. Right now, i'm not apart of silver sneakers, but until i can get signed up, we can purchase punch cards for the class at discounted rates. Once i get the moves down and then if Karen doesn't want to go one day, i still can. Voila! social barrier removed.
Okay, i'm gonna go do some reading up here. I haven't checked in with folks in a few days. gotta see what ya'll have been up to.
Blessings.

Good evenin' F. S.
i hope everything is fine with ya'll. I, however, am under the influence of Aleve, the third one for the day. I wrenched my right hip somehow during my workout session this past Sunday and had thought it had healed but nope. during my workout on the treadmill this morning, pain in my hip and groin reared it's ugly little head. I finished the routine, but was limping by the time i got off the machine. It was so bad earlier this week that i missed yoga. I tried to get down on the floor to fetch the dog clicker i dropped under my bed and my hip "Haaaytted It". that was on Monday. Tuesday morning i was limping again. So, i don't do lower body work out again until Sunday. I think i'll skip the lower body exercises on that day. I'll just focus on moderate weights or maybe stretching that day.
For those who pray, would you put in a good word for my family when you pray? My niece (my sister's kid) is having some issues with her youngest son. He's 18 and i think he's smelling himself (to quote and old saying). He seems to think that since he's turned 18 that somehow makes him a "man" and he can just come and go as he pleases and talk to his mother any way he pleases. This is perhaps the second or third time they've gotten into it and this time he scared her. she thought he was going to hit her and all over something stupid he had done. He lost his house key. She's also going through marital problems which does not help the situation with her son at all. Anyway, i don't want to bore ya'll with dull details. any good thoughts and prayers you could send our way would be greatly appreciated. I think she's going to have to put him out of the house. It seems as if he thinks it's okay to intimidate her. I'm praying things don't escalate over this.
thanks, you guys. I appreciate any good thoughts and prayers.
Blessings
