i think doctor visits are so hard. i always weigh more there because i'm dressed and it's in the middle of the day. and i often feel judged, rather than supported. losing weight is not easy so we all just have to do the best we can. if all you can walk right now is a block, then start walking a block. if you do it regularly, you'll be surprised that one day you'll decide that maybe you could go another block, and then maybe another. the first step (or block) is the hardest. best wishes! - joan

:( well i just went to the dr and i have gained 10lbs since i was there a week ago. all i want to do is cry. i am so mad at myself my weight is out of control. i need to do something now! if i weren't sick i would go out and take a walk but i get winded just by walking a block. :( anyone have any advice???

Don't cry. You have to take care of yourself.. and you CAN change. As soon as you aren't sick, go walking.

I know how you feel, I hate scales, they suck(excuse my language)! If you want just tell the doc you aren't getting weighed, I think I am going to do that next time. Anyways, as far as advice goes I would say try to put on some lean muscle. Lean muscle burns alot of calories and looks good also! If you are having a hard time walking try to do 15 minutes of lifting a day. Do your legs one day, then your arms the next, abs and back next, then repeat. Good luck
