walkin a lil easier, well, a little

[Guest guest]

Hi, I've got good news I want to share this morning!

I've been working hard the past couple of months on dieting. Some of you

have heard me bemoan having gained weight the former year and a half .... Like

20 pounds, yuck. I've always battled the bulge and sometimes that bulge was

pretty bad, but had lost everything I wanted to lose a couple of years ago.

Dieters know it's easier to lose than maintain, LOL! Well, as of this

morning, I've now lost 10 of the 20 that jumped back on when I wasn't looking.

I have to admit that I notice it's a little easier to walk! Now, I'm not

saying that I no longer need the cane that I started to use every day six months

ago, but, I am noticing it is easier to lift my legs.

That is helping to motivate me and hopefully, I can kiss the other 10

goodbye, too, or at least another 5. I'm older and my metabolism is changing

and I

can't be as active as I used to be thanks to these crazy legs, so I'll take

what I can get as long as it's not in the up-direction!

best,

Kathi
