Good morning/afternoon/evening,

Set up that treadmill when it arrives, plug in some of your favourite upbeat tunes LOUD and push the start button. Getting into that zone is a great feeling (avid treadmill fan here lol - I do some of my best thinking while running towards a white wall that never seems to get closer to me :thinking::laughing::sweat_smile:). Push yourself to go through the motions and get on that thing :facepunch:

Oh gosh. I’m so sorry for your loss. I’ve been through that twice. My chocolate lab and also my border collie. Both made it to a great old age. So hard to lose them. My heart goes out to your and your family.
Congratulations on your 100 days and staying strong!

Awesome! I’m on day 8-right behind you. Had a fairly short moment of wanting to give in after 7 days…I mean i made it a week right??? I kept going! Realized my triggers( one being I was totally exhausted and overwhelmed so I took some time to meditate which is sooo hard for me) Made it though last nite, feel great this morning and can’t wait to get to double digits too. Thanks for your post! It inspires me more to keep going!!! Have an amazing day everyone :heartpulse:

Thanks bec. Your right some tunes and even if it’s just a walk I’m sure will feel good.

@Butterflymoonwoman I really did use to love it, and lifting it’s weird how the passion just died, hopefully I can spark it up again.

@Its_me_Stella I have tried, I got the letters stating we were covered but no cards yet. And now I can’t get ahold of the girl who did the stuff to give my information to make a appointment, I don’t want to schedule a appointment without the cards because then they will charge me and yes I can have the card pay it back but it’s just a hassle, so I figured I’d wait till the cards come.

Awesome. So hang on tight right now.

I have noticed that my moods haven’t gone away since I cleaned up. They are just easier to ride out… instead of being the super scary corkscrew Rollercoaster that I always wanted to jump off. They are more like the annoying kiddie coaster that is inconvenient. Hang on this will pass.
