Women Who Inspire Me.
There are several women who are in great shape who inspire me.I just watched a great movie from 2007 with Miss Regina King.She is fit and beautiful.Also Oprah Winfrey,Phylisia Rashad.Janet Jackson,Toni Braxton,Tina Turner is in great shape for her age.Even though Oprah has put on weight i am inspired by how she managed to lose it and i believe she will do it again.Other women such as Jessica Simpson, Valeria Bertinelli,Pamela Anderson ,Jennifer Lopez and i cannot count how many women that are in great shape.I don’t know of any women on a personal level who have lost weight that i can say have encouraged me to lose weight.I don’t understand why so many women in church have no motivation or desire to get in shape.The only women i have ever seen in a gym from our church was the pastors wife and that was years ago when her twin girls were small.Oh i am sorry,there is one and her name is Katrina.I went to her house for dinner one day.She had lost around 20 pounds then.I remember back in the day we would get together and go out to eat after church and whenever the choir went out of town we would stop and eat at a restarant and go home and go to bed on all that fattening food..Matter a fact they were selling hamburgers and hot dogs with chips after church today.I have been weight consious for a long time and i have been losing weight and trying to stay in shape since 1979 when i first got married.I think a lot of women get in church get married and get comfortable.Well i got the man so i can relax and not work out but that is not good.I did not start to gain a lot of weight until after i was diagnosed with hypothyroid disease.I went from hyperthyroid disorder to hypo.I went from 150 to 186 pounds within a year.I was working out and i was still gaining weight until i got on my meds and they had to be readjusted over the years.There were times i did not eat right but i have worked out for years to keep in shape whether i have a man in my life or not.So i am grateful to see women who are likeminded and care about how they look and thier health.It is not just about how you look it is to be healthy and i think some women(especially churh women)seem to ignore this.I had thought about getting together a group of sisters to come in and work out at my house and i have invited some in the past but they do not seem interested.I know some of them may go to the gym.We need to be well-rounded and not only god concsious but health and body conscious too.So ladies what women in your life or in music or television inspire you to work out?.Hey after seeing Miss Regina King in that movie i am going to go work out tonight and this is not my work out night.
I think it comes down to some people can’t or won’t try to lose weight. The percentage of people who are obese keeps going up. It is like an epidemic. I guess it is stress, fast foods, depression, lack of caring, or low-self esteem. I am glad we have each other to confide in and to be supportive. The person I admire the most is my hub for losing 40 pounds on purpose without being able to do any form of exercise. It was all his diet. That would have been impossible for me if I were that disabled.
I admire the people here on BS, real people with struggles like mine. I find them so inspiring.
Of course i feel the same way.i have seen many before and after photos and i am really impressed and i do admire you guys for every pound and inch you lose.We are in this together.weight is a battle we will allways fight as long as we live.Even when we reach goal we still have to work to maintain the weight loss.So kudos to all.lol.
as far as women i like big women are also fit and beutiful such as Queen Latifah
