Weighty Issues

Well, I can't believe how fast September has passed. Working full-time, exercising and staying on a food plan is definitely challenging, but this month went pretty well. This week I have a new low weight. I am down another 2.5 lbs for a total of 70 lbs given away! Cheers! I joined water aerobics and started back at my afternoon exercise class. So I have been exercising 2 days and doing water aerobics 2 days during the week and walking 2-3 miles on the weekends.  My knee hurt a few times during the week, so I have started taking Chondroitin again along with my glucosomine to see if it helps. I met a woman in class who is having the same difficulty with simple exercise due to obesity that I had 10 years ago. It really brought back some very painful memories and made me feel so greatful that I am able to do the activities that I can do today.

Well, I've been back to work a week and my foodplan has been easy to follow. However, I have not gotten up any earlier in the morning to walk. I just don't seem to be able to get up before 5:30 am.

Today I stayed home sick with some nasty intestinal bug, so I may not eat everything on my plan today. I started getting sick at suppertime, so I ate pretty lightly and as a result my weight is at a new low. However, as soon as I start feeling better I expect to be back up a couple of pounds. I ate my oatmeal late this morning and seem to be okay now, but I am going to take it easy all day. I still haven't started water aerobics as the Y was closed for two weeks. I will try to get over there this week. I'd love to hear some comments! Thanks.
