taking little steps
Monday, January 21st 2008
Physical therapy was a bear today, but it felt good. Good to finally use muscles that haven't been used in a long time. In fact I wondered were they had been hiding all these years.I'm sore right now but a good kind of sore, and not in pain. This achievement is like taking little steps to someone like me who needed a scooter to get around a shopping mall.(still do at this point)All this is exciting because if I can exercise, I will be able to loose weight better. That is the plan I hope and hope...Play offs Are Here

I ran out of snacks( read y...

Oh boy, I thought, I hadn't been on one of these in 18 years because of my back and si joint pain. He slowly turned up the speed and I anticipated the pain....no pain...few minutes later...even though I'm going at the slowest speed...no pain...still holding onto the rails for dear life...no pain. Ten minutes went bay and I am beaming look what I did!I did it---I did it ...Temptation in small forms
Thursday, January 17th 2008
Temptation comes in little forms such as the treats that you have to prepare for the kids in the afternoon. Then there is believe it or not the little leftovers on the plates as you are cleaning off the night dishes. For me, its LITTLE MARSHMALLOWS that I GIVE my dogs every night in order to get them to take their medicine.It is so easy to plop one of those little burgers into my mouth without thinking about it. Before long one becomes two, two becomes three and I have a problem called TEMPTATIO...
