1/7 WORKOUT - Lower Body (& where did Sad Me go??)
No Rise & Shine TMAS this morning. A person of the feline persuasion kept me up all night with his chatter, so I decided to add 45 minutes to my 4 hours of sleep this morning. Not sure which affected my attitude today more, the lack of sleep or the lack of cardio. I was no

I Am
Start weight 270#. I am a tall, morbidly obese lady in her early 30s. I am intelligent, learn quickly, retain information well. But I can't seem to quite get things together despite this big brain that's so celebrated by my family and my employers. My house is generally a mess despite that I love things to be pristine. My body is in horrible shape. I never do much with my hair or makeup. It's like there's this disconnect... I care alot about big causes and even the little troubles of people around me, but never really do much about any of it. I'm just too tired... and a little jaded I guess.

To me, Transformation Means
I haven't figure that part out yet. I'm thinking something along the lines of... becoming a verb instead of an adjective... if that makes any sense. I think MichelleT's post gives some good insight into figuring this out.
My Goals
I've a long way to go, so there will be a series of Transformations I must go through.
Although my only true goal is "TO FINISH THE THING!" and anything else would be a 'gift with purchase', here are the hoped-for results for my first 18 weeks:
-Lose 5% of my body fat.
-Make the constant pain my left leg no longer constant go away completely.
-Make it so none of the clothes I have in the closet now are too tight unflattering.
-Be able to jog at least 1/8 of a mile. Everything I crossed out I've already achieved!!
My Intentions
I want to live into my 90s and beyond so that I can make a difference for years to come. I want to reclaim the years lost to my obesity and lack of passion. I want to feel that I can do anything, to at the very least try, and show everyone around me that they can, too. I want to radiate life to everyone I meet. I want a nice eulogy at my funeral and for no one to mourn my passing, but to feel that warm glow of remembering a life lived well and a good purpose fulfilled.
Who I'd Like to Inspire
My mother. I want to be able to show her, and others like her, that it really is possible to get healthy and beautiful again - that you don't have to give up & become the walking dead - that there ARE great things ahead... and that she DESERVES THEM!!
The 8 Week Miracle!

Hey Sebine, just wanted to say hello and welcome you. We are having an Arizona Transformers meetup in January on the 10th. Check out the thread in the group section and let us know if you can make it! Carolynn
Sounds like a plan. Maybe someday we'll be in good enough shape to hike Piestewa Peak or Camelbackl! Last time I tried that (8years ago?) I thought I was gonna keel over...seriously,lol!
Wishing you and your family a Happy Thanksgiving!! Raul
Your words are so encouraging! I know I can't give up, it isn't worth it. I can either work hard and see some progress. Or stop and go back to the way I was and maybe even worse. This is a tougher journey than I anticpated, but I know it will be worth it in the end! Thank you again so much for the kind words! Arlyn
