Do people treat me differently after my weight loss? No. do not notice people treating me differently. My friends, my family, they’ve seen me at this weight, they’ve seen me at my heaviest, they’ve seen me at my goal. I’ve had 14 years of “yo-yo-yo-yo-yo” so they’re not, I’m not on the market, I’m in love.
I live with my boyfriend, so I’m not dating, so I don’t know what that’s like. But the viewer had mentioned that their skinny friends get treated differently than they do, because they’re still fat. I talked to a friend about this. He told my always been confident, I’ve always had charisma, I’ve always had charm.
You know, I take control when I enter a situation. So, fortunately, I’ve never had that issue, but I wanna tell you guys if that is your situation. I learn this five years ago my MBA class. We deserve what we accept. We deserve what we accept. We also treat people how to treat So if you’re not feeling confident and you feel like people are treating you unfairly or different, work on your confidence pull your shoulders back, work on your body language, pull your head up, stick your chin up when you walk into the room.
Review conversational topics, things that can get you into conversations easier with people. Work on your self-esteem, work on your confidence, and that will eventually shine through. So that’s what I have say to that viewer, I hope it helps, and I answered your question. The other thing I want to talk about, is that I do feel my lap band.
This fill, I’m tender, I think I have been mindless for the last 15 weeks. I think it’s led to me overeating and having the PB episodes. That’s why I’m actually happy with the two week liquids. Those people who are just now post op, take the time to heal. Learn what your body feels like. Learn how it fills up, how quickly it fills up on the liquids that you’re doing.
That’s what I’m doing. This is a relearning process and I have not PBed for over about 11 days. Pretty good. And I’ve only been on liquids for 3. My goals for this week one, sign up for the 5 k. I did it, my second 5 k in Long Beach, on Thanksgiving the Long Beach turkey trot. And that is you can run it or walk it so if there is anybody local who wants to do it with me at 7:30 a.m. on Thanksgiving please join me.
Let me know. Twenty five dollars in. I’m gonna add another minute to each workout I do this week. Last week I did it, I maxed out at 3 minutes, I had 3 workouts. This week I’m gonna hope to max it out at 3 minutes again. Just got back from the gym, I added that extra minute. So I ran for 34 minutes tonight, by the end of the week, 36 minutes.
I’ve got to start using my weights. I have free weight here, I want to circuit train at the gym. I have the Wii Fit in multiple programs with resistance bands. I’ve got to do it. I’m losing the weight, I’m starting to get a little bit of jiggle here. Don’t don’t really care, my arms are smaller now then they were 31 weeks ago.
But, I know that I have to do it, hold me accountable, check me on that, make sure I’m I have my integrity intact on that one. What is my motivation this week? What’s got me going? Number one, Sky moon you know. Did you see her video from last year’s birthday to this year’s birthday? Phenomenal.
And let me just tell you guys, she has worked hard for this. I have watched her journey. In those pictures yesterday, she was radiating confidence, she was radiating self love, she’s radiating happiness, she’s radiating courage, she’s radiating strength, she’s radiating empowerment. Love you, Melanie.
Awesome, thank you so much. That’s my key to this week. Secondly, I paid my couch, or I paid for that 5K, $25, I got to work to make sure I can finish it strong. Third, I buy fitness magazines, fitness in shape. I learn about different techniques, I see other success stories, there’s menus, there’s workout plans.
