Before After

Happy New Rear!!!

No that is not a typo!!  I'm back, I'm motivated and I'm going to do it if it kills me.  Not necessarily loose more weight or not much more but EXERCISE!!!

I am going to exercise more.  I am tired of my little baseball player on my ticker moving backwards and I'm tired of looking in the mirror when trying on pants and seeing  no rear...none, it slid off sometime ago.  I used to have a nice round booty, rude men used to comment on it when I was young and slim...now a nice round booty is okay to have and where the hell is mine??   Gone, just up and slid away  as if getting old didn't suck bad enough as it is.....

My new years resolution this year is to MAKE time for me and to TAKE time for me...no matter what I'm taking 30 minutes a day to do it.  I'm going to work out,  and  get ready for the day every single morning.  30 minutes when I do not answer the phone, read email, do homework, take care of the puppy, or take care of ds...30 minutes of ME TIME.  I am not going to do it at the unholy hour of 5:30 am anymore either...from 6:30 to 7:00 will be my time.  Everyone else can just wait or go away during that time...

On a good note, my blood pressure this latest dr. visit was  120/80 which is damn good because I had not been taking any blood pressure meds for 2 weeks because I had run out.  The dr. kept me on the blood pressure meds and mediformin again witih the promise that if I could loose 35 lbs I could try doing with out them.   My cholesterol had improved so much she quit talking about pills for that.  3 years ago my blood pressure was so high I would wake  up at night thinking someone was nailing roofing on the house next door.  I was at near stroke level and my sugar was out of control.  I started out taking 3 metaformins a day at 500 mg each.  Now I'm down to 1-500 mg pill per day.

I am now battling the stupid kidney stones from hell.  It seems like whenever I get really busy and stressed one or two will decide to break loose and  create chaos when I can least afford it.  During final exam week I had to deal with them.  I still haven't passed them but at least I'm not in pain anymore.

I finished the semester with 3 As 1 B (damn grad student teacher) and a W (Biology  not my thing)

New semester starts the 16th...tax season starts tomorrow, ds basketball games start Saturday....

until then I think I'll just chill....

Ar-REARS!

Here's to finding and/or in your case reclaiming your rear.  I too fell off the proverbial weight loss bandwagon.  But I'm happy to say that I've happily hopped back on and am moving in the right direction.  Good luck to you this year.  You can do it!

Here's to a new rear!

Sounds like you are geared up and ready to get rid of the last few lingering pounds!  Well done on loosing 90lbs so far.  THe last bit is always the hardest, but you can do it.
