BUT I still have 30 to go and it ain't goin' nowhere -- at all for months now. <br /><br />I need to step up the exercise - I do NONE at the moment. But with bad feet, ankles, knees, hips, upper and lower back, neck, and shoulders and hands -- what the hell do you do for exercise? <br /><br />Not to mention the motivation deal -- the deal is there is none. <br /><br />*sigh* And now the weather's SO COLD.

As you know, I spent years making excuses and finally actually did something about it this year. I won't lie -- it has been a difficult journey (and I will have to remain diligent for the rest of my life so that I don't fall back into bad patterns), but it's all worth it. Good luck! :)comebacknikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00115979340961629983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17632197.post-54564691677134780722010-11-08T14:22:07.155-05:002010-11-08T14:22:07.155-05:00My problem is not so much the garbage food, althou...My problem is not so much the garbage food, although ice cream has been a problem for me for a while now. But I'm in south Louisiana right now and every freaking thing cooked down here is fattening: beans, gumbo, etouffee - plus it's all eaten with rice. Fortunately, I can't cook any of it, otherwise we be eating even more of it. But my mother's family keeps supplying us with all of it, so there's no getting away from it.<br /><br />Since I have no willpower whatsoever, I literally have to move away from here to stop eating it. Luckily, my motivation for moving away from here is very strong, so I hope it won't be long now.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07395686312754791503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17632197.post-58157573868922259402010-11-08T09:22:12.306-05:002010-11-08T09:22:12.306-05:00Rebecca: Where I live now, it's way to easy to...Rebecca: Where I live now, it's way to easy to eat garbage food.Seeking Solacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13605809609182729290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17632197.post-13599565334618386872010-11-07T20:00:23.191-05:002010-11-07T20:00:23.191-05:00ditto ditto ditto ditto ditto ditto re drinking st...ditto ditto ditto ditto ditto ditto re drinking stupid fat exercise excuses baby steps.<br /><br />Sigh.<br /><br />Unfortunately, I can tell that I'm just not ready yet to buckle down to eating right again. I'm in totally the wrong location for that and, once again, I'm not alone. Even more relevant, I'm not anywhere near in the right frame of mind.<br /><br />Hopefully not too, too long from now.
