Borderline Obese

Tweet

I'm back up to being borderline obese again, apron for a stomach and all. I'm disgusted with myself and anxious to get some of the weight off. I won't tell you how much I weigh but it's high. And none of my jeans fit me anymore! *cries* My husband bought me this bike that's in excellent condition. He tweaked it up for me and then for the first time in 20 years, I hopped on a bike and re-learned how to ride one again. So this past Friday I practised for a half an hour, re-learning balancing, braking, taking off, etc. Then Saturday he took me for what I thought was going to be a small challenge for a beginner, but turned out to be this major (to me) 4 and a half hour biking trip all across the city including hills and sharp turns, and at times I felt like I couldn't go any further. After much insults, laughs, and prodding, Hubby finally got me home. I made pizza, plopped on the couch and said that I was NOT gonna clean up!!! lol This was the first time in years that I've worked up a sweat like that, though. I know ever since my miscarriage last year the weight came packing on me, and I just never done anything about it. Since obesity runs in my family, it'll be hard to get it off and keep it off. I guess all my computer work is causing me to get fatter, too...all the inactivity. Hubby did promise me that there's harder bike trips to come, and by October I should be in shape and slim again. I think I'll go along with losing weight. I can't afford another wardrobe, and I have a perfectly good one now, although 90% of the clothes are too small for me, but if I could do it one time, then I can do it again. I hate being fat anyway. People look at you and all that. And when I said pizza earlier in this post, I meant, I made a homemade, healthy pizza with lots of vegetables.
