| Found this online this morning and LAUGHED so hard I burned 30 calories. |
You're not alone! I want to lose with you. I'm a competitive person, so I like to race people to the finish line. In this case, there is no finish line. I'm tired of losing-gaining-losing-gaining ... I want to lose forever and stay fit, happy and healthy. Several women my age, mid-30s, will be contributing to this blog. Why? I am going to fall off the wagon here and there, and I'm hoping they'll pick me up when I do. And I'd like to return the favor to them if I can.
Also, I walked 30 minutes yesterday and spent 35 minutes on the elliptical. That's about as much as I can do, due to my back problem. I am drinking my water and working as hard as I can to reduce the fat in my recipes, from rinsing (not just draining) the grease off the ground burger in my recipes to substituting egg beaters and ground turkey and chicken to other recipes.
FYI- I have degenerative disc disease and chronic, acute pain because of that and some instability from my stretched SI (sacroiliac) ligaments from back-to-back pregnancies. Running is out of the question as well as many other things I love to do (volleyball, basketball, etc.). I have to lose weight, for the first time in my life, with low-impact exercises. Any advice is more than welcome!!!
