Still Here

Yes I am still here, and yes I am working out. Although last week and the first of this week was not good. I missed several days last week and early this week. I woke up yesterday determined that I was not going to stop and I got to moving. Even though I could tell I was a bit winded, I still made it through the entire DVD. And I am going to keep at it!

I also quit my food diary. That is a bad decision, I know. It just depresses me so to not be losing any weight. I need to check my measurements to see if there is any change there even though I haven't noticed any change in the way my clothes fit. I may not pick that diary back up just yet, but I am trying really hard to make a conscious decision on eating better.

We leave on vacation next week, and my goal, other than having a wonderful time, is to workout every morning and to pay attention to what I eat. Working out will not be a problem, I have learned that having my portable DVD player with the workout in it and having the TV on the news actually helps me make it through the workout. Again the eating better part will be the hardest part. Not just making right decisions, but we are going several places we have never been before and I am really not sure what the food choices will be. But I promise myself, I will do the best I can.

Knees are still hurting and it is now in my left knee as well as my right. When I go to the orthopedist after vacation, I will have him check out both. Until then, I will try and just ignore the pain and enjoy my trip. Luckily, we won't be climbing any mountains!
