Wow, interesting article!

A short snippet: "A brisk 30-minute walk six days a week is enough to trim waistlines and cut the risk of metabolic syndrome -- an increasingly common condition that is linked to obesity and a sedentary lifestyle, a new study indicates."

Wow...

...it's been a while since I posted here! 2007 just got away from me!

I promise to start blogging again here soon!!

I'm still here, I promise!!

I have just had a LOT going on lately, so blogging here hasn't been that high of a priority. Hopefully things will calm back down to normal soon so that I'll be able to a)get back to working to lose weight and b)get back to regular blogging here!

No weigh-in this week...

Between lack of time on Monday morning and the fact that it's, well, "that" time... I decided to hold off on weighing in until next Monday.

For anybody who reads who is into genealogy, I'm working on revamping my Southeast USA Genealogy website and am working to manually add in all several hundred of the Surname registry entries from the previous version since I not have an interface that it searchable (yay!). Just thought I'd post a link...just in case ;-)

My 2/12/07 Weigh-In

We were all sick last week - fun with stomach bugs and sinus infections...but at least I lost a few pounds...hey, trying to think positively here ;-)

Ticker has been updated up above :-)

No, I'm not pregnant!

I just remembered something that I meant to post last week...oops...

DH and I were sitting in a waiting room, waiting for an appointment. The receptionist asked us both if we wanted something to drink; DH said he was fine and I asked for some ginger ale...to which she replied that she used to love ginger ale too when she was PREGNANT, and that she had an absolute craving for it.

You'd think I was wearing maternity pants that day...oh wait, I was...I just can't justify to myself spending $30 for new khakis right now since I have 2 pairs one size down that are just waiting for me to lose a few more pounds to get back into them...

I also wondered if she might have not noticed the pants, but might have thought it because of my weight...

I was polite though, and just smiled back at her, not saying a word...

My 1/22/07 Weigh-In

Another week, another loss!

This morning I weighed in at 277 lbs.

3 lbs down from last week and 5.5 lbs down so far this year!

P.S Sinus infections really suck :-(
