Long time no post!

May 06, 2011

Well I just came out here to see my posts because someone called me a 'Slack-Ass' earlier and said he read my posts and how excited I was about Curves and my bicycle and how I need to get my butt moving. Have to say in the past that might have pissed me off - now it's just opening my eyes and my mind and re-affirming what I already knew - I have been a 'Slack-ass' and I need to get over that and get moving again.

Since my last post a lot has happened - most on here know I lost my mom in February 2010 - the year following that was very strange for me - in ways it was a relief to not see her suffering any longer, and I thought it would be a lot less stress on me for not having ot take care of her. What I found was that I was 'lost' without her and caring for her. I guess it happened so gradually over the past few years that she had been ill that it just became routine for me, and when it was gone I didn't know what to do - didn't have the ambition to work out - just didn't feel like doing anything, including riding my precious bicycle that she had given me on my last birthday.

I never had plastics, but maybe will some day when I feel the time is right. So for now I am ready to get back on track with my eating and exercise - I want to feel strong and healthy and energetic like I did when I was taking care of my mom. I think exercise for me during that time with her was a big stress reliever, but it did so much more as well.

So I'm up to the challenge - Sunday, Mother's Day, May 6, 2011, I am starting my 90 Day Challenge - I'm doing it for myself - I'm doing it for my health and well-being - and I'm doing it because damnit, I deserve it!!
