Day 11 - 20 mins

This morning, every step I took I had to fight for. Sometimes it's a REAL struggle. Everytime I came around to the stop point I kept telling myself to do one more lap...one more, one more. I managed 16 mins outside walking and for the last 4 I vigorously cleaned the kitchen etc...lol. I know it's not the same...but it COUNTS!!  My shoulder has been buggin the heck out of me and I had to fight with myself to make sense of it. I just had to keep saying, "it's just a muscle it's just a muscle...your heart is beating and feels good." I feel like a dolt sometimes talking to myself. "Normal" people don't walk around trying to convince themselves they AREN'T going to die. I mean WTH???  Well i did it. I had a good little meditative time this morning. Something I need to incorporate into my everyday.  I had a cup or Fiber1 cereal with a Cup of lowfat Lactaid and I took my meds. I'm doing pretty good all things considered.  Hugs, Love, and Blessings to you all. D

Hey, you did a great job!! 16 minutes is a long time. And if your kitchen is anything like mine, cleaning it would definantly count!! By the way, positive self talk is a good thing. I do it all the time, just in my head.....sometimes out loud. I try not to do it outloud too often, my kids might wonder what\'s going on with mommy!! But it really does help. Keep on keepin on girl! Your doing great. Love ya\'
