With falling at the wedding, I had to go to the ER and a cast was put on my leg. I had sprained it badly. i was sent to a specialist and told that it'd truly help me out if I'd lose wait...DUH....So he showed me some exercises that would help me with building muscle around my knee. We had an old exercise bike and I decided that it would be a good way to help my knee out.
Adding exercise to me already eating healthier aided in my weight loss. It was a slow process. I started walking as well once my knee wasn't hurting as bad. I began with going just 10 minutes at a time because I got winded. I worked my way up to 15 minutes and then 20. Before I knew it, I could go a half hour. By this point, I was 5 months into my lifestyle change and down 30 plus pounds. I was excited because I was losing and then gaining for a while. My body was in shock from the introduction of exercise. right before my third semester of college started, I was feeling horrible. i went to the ER and found out that I had the stomach flu. Once again, my dad blamed my weight and how I ate.....I had enough. I let the cat out of the bag and told them everything. They kind of knew that I was working on it because of me on the bike and they had noticed my food choices changing. They didn't say much at first. they just took it as a like, "Whatever". I didn't care. I was in it for the long haul and it was my choice. NOT THEIRS.
