The Running Bug

The Running Bug?  It's what I don't have.  Everyone around me is catching it.  And I want to ride the same wave that they are on!  Unfortunately, I was told I needed Reconstructive surgery on both knees back when I was 13, and exercise has never been easy, let alone running.  But someday, I would love to try.  Is that just a pipe dream for me?  Who knows?  For now, my favorite form of exercise is Zumba!  I try to do it whenever my work schedule allows.  My best friend JB teaches it, and she is the best I know, making it easy for my clumsy feet to follow.  One day, I hope she will make a Zumba DVD for me to purchase, so I can do it at home when I miss her classes!

Today's weight is 200.5.  Which funny enough, I am totally happy with.  I seem to bounce back and fourth between 206 and 200.  I have only once gotten below 200 in the past year, and that was to 199, and then shot right back up to 206.  I do retain alot of water, and can't take any diuretics because of my health conditions, so hopefully the bloating and swelling will automatically go away the thinner I become!  Todays goal is to eat no ice cream!  (I work in an ice cream store!!)  I have only had it one day out of the past 6, and only 3 taster spoons worth!  I am sticking to the fat free frozen yogurt, that by the way... is the bomb!  My fave is with blueberries and walnuts mixed in.  Well, off to work.  Wish me luck!
