No Room To Run

Having moved into a new home, I am finding it impossible to exercise. If I am going to be totally honest, I haven't exercised since I got here, and really a few weeks before.

I used to go to the gym or walk a lot. Either of those would be the way to go for me. I walk with friends or around my neighborhood often, and these aren't leisurely strolls. i power walk until I sweat. If the weather was bad, I could always go to the gym, which included child care.

Here, the weather hasn't been above 50 in since we got here, and it has generally been raining or snowing at least a little everyday. So, walking is just not an option.

If I were back in San Diego, I would hit the gym, no matter the weather. Here, I don't have a gym membership at this time. Which stinks.

So, right now, I have no good options for exercising.

I can't even exercise in the house, because there is no place to do so. Really. There isn't.

My mom does have an old treadmill somewhere. I'm hoping to pull it out of the storage (junk) room she has and start using it. Until then, I guess I'll just run around the house while I do my errands.

Sooo.........

So, I'm still here, and still fat.  It's a fact.  I've gained a lost probably 100 pounds or so since we last spoke.  Why, because that's what we do.  It is.  I wish is wasn't. So, where I'm at today: fat.  Really fat.  I was about 20 pounds from my highest weight when I went to the Dr for my checkup the other day.  Soooooo not good.  So, we had a little chat, led by me because my Dr is awesome and won't push anything on anyone who isn't ready.  I told her I was seriously considering Gastric Sleeve.  I've looked into it.  I've hounded my insurance to cover it, and they do now.  My Dr and I discussed it a little.  One of the steps to being approved for any gastric surgery is having discussed your weight with your primary care physician.  She wanted to try something before we got to that next step.  There is a new drug on the market called Contrave.  Its all the rave.  (Had to.  I'm not sorry.) ...

The Wagon

You see that wagon over there? Well that would be the wagon I fell off. It was a long hard fall, and it hurt. No. I suppose the fall itself felt pretty good. It meant I got to eat crap. It was the landing when I weighed this morning that hurt. So, I'm climbing back on the morning. I have a lot of ground to make up for that fall. Ick. Sometimes it is worth it, though.
