OK, so  I took a LONG hiatus……………….

I did some exercising here and there, but not anything continuous.  I’m re-dedicating myself to walking/running, etc. Did 2.06 miles on the treadmill this afternoon.  Walk/Run for 40min.

The weather is getting nicer again to be outside so I hope to ramp up.

Bob had back surgery on July 6th and we both have gained weight with his recovery.  His because of lack of movement and I guess I was sympathy gaining  . 

He goes back to the doctor this Friday to see how things are and hopefully he can get back to exercising.  His endurance is low and he’ll have to start slow, but he is determined!  So I will be too.  I have a little advantage at the moment to get my butt going and maybe catch up to where he may be shortly.

Well, this past week has been some set backs.  But it is to be expected I guess.  My weight loss came to a screeching halt, but this morning started to drop again.  I’m down 11 1/4 lbs.  I guess that’s still good for a month.  I also tried to run again yesterday with April at Gring’s Mill, which is a great place to run and walk. Except they don’t allow doggies.   And first my lower legs started to hurt, I got two ‘runs’ in and had to walk.  We had a really nice walk.  Then after I got home, my Achilles tendon must not be healed because it is KILLING me, to the point of having trouble just walking around.  UGH.  I’ll never make it to run the 5K.

Bob got my bike out yesterday and made it ready to ride.  I’m coming to the conclusion that all I really need to do is exercise.  Not that I HAVE to run to do it.  As long as I do something to raise my heart rate.  Maybe when I get down in weight more the running won’t be so hard on my lower legs.

Maybe I’ll get some tassels for the handle bars!
