I've been real, real sick this week. Everything sucks. Like, literally everything. 

After the hospital appointments I've had the last few days, long term health issues might be a thing. A thing that would affect my ability to exercise. Gah. 

Not totally serious, just affecting ability to exercise. Oh and I've got to say, don't even get me started on what happened this weekend with BM and SS. Seriously. 

If I don't lose weight from the stress of all this crap, I will be even more pissed.

I've got nuthin else for ya. Sorry guys.

Really hope everyone's having a better week. X

Hey Sunny!

As you know, I'm easing into the fitness thing. I have not changed my diet over the last few months, although I've thought about it. I've read books about it. I've looked at some recipes. I have not given up my wine, either.

I have gone to the gym. Not as often as I wanted. I show up a couple times a week. I follow the group trainer's routine. I hate it. I stink at it. I gasp like a dying guppy and I do it anyway. I don't see much movement on the scale AT ALL, and I have been trying 2-4x/week at the gym since March 1, 2016.

Just found my measurements which I took 2/29/16 ... YIKES. Comparing measurements from March to today. Just the 3 main areas of waist, upper hip (apple belly), lower hip. I have lost a total of 10" overall on those 3 measurements. So, 10" in the torso in 3 1/2 months.

Happy with myself for persevering and kinda wish I'd get on the stick with the diet thing.

Sorry that you are having a difficult time with your health right now. Remember that you and I spoke about our responsibility to the people we love to care for ourselves and our health? For me, it might mean that I drag my middle=aged butt to the gym to counteract some of those heart disease markers .... perhaps for you it's caring for yourself in a different manner. Hopefully, you and DD can walk or swim to give you some exercise even if you are not training for a 25K race.

Okay, I will bite: What happened with BM/SS this weekend?
