Stepping Out On Faith.......again

I am in bad shape....and getting worse it seems.....I am back over 300 pounds.....last time I stepped on the scale a few days ago it was 317 pounds. I guess I should go and check to see what it is for today.

Now my weight goes up and down all the time....has ever since I had the thyroid issues and the surgery to remove it. My fear or concern is that I am too heavy for my knee replacements to carry the weight. I have GOT to do something.....the weight has GOT to come off and stay off. <sigh>

So I am back dear Stepping friends......asking for simple support......I am going to start with a walk to the end of my driveway and back.....I will commit to one a day for a week......no, that is not much. Yet, with this weight I have back on, it makes my back hurt to go that far......so, baby steps is what I think I need to commit to, that way I won't have a reason to say "I couldn't make it". One trip a day......who knows.....it might be two or three or more a day......my commitment this week is for one.

I *need* to be below 200 pounds.....I know it....have known it for years.....just never get anywhere near that before the body puts the weight back on. I can make it down between 250-265 or so. So, another part of my plan I am going to be working with.......I will lose 5 pounds......I am only going to work on losing 5 pounds......when I make that mark.......we will talk about my next goal.

Starting today......God and I are Stepping Out On Faith.......once again.
