Nervous

I have to say I am a bit nervous going into the maintenance phase of my weight loss. Mainly because of the limitations I have on exercise for the next few months. I am able to do the treadmill and do weights for my upper body. It certainly will not be the workouts that I have mbeen doing... I did not go and weigh in this week so that is weighing heavy on my mind also. Maybe I have too much time on my hands and once I get back to work I will feel more in control. I did take a short walk yesterday and didnt feel too bad afterwards I also was up and moving all day yesterday and did fine. I am nervous about going back to work (not being able to do it) but going to the bathroom and all.. you see it is a bit difficult to get the bladder going and empyting completely so it takes a bit for the whole process. After I go to the bathroom on my own I have to use a catheter to finish to empty my bladder, which is no big deal at home but may be a bit daunting out in a public bathroom. Well, all I can do is give it a whirl tomorrow and see how it goes. I am excited about getting back to work and being around people and doing things. Well, I guess I will do the best I can and see how it goes... I will report in and let all know how it goes... till tomorrow..

You know what I think about this...maintenence is more work then losing the weight in the first place, most of your journey is just beginning if you ask me! Just decide each day that TODAY and ONLY today is the day you are going to take care of yourself!
