9/2 - Weighed in = lost 2 lbs in 2 wks
Hey.
I haven't been on here for about two weeks, I think. I've been knocked down healthwise, but I'm on the mend. Besides a stomach virus, I hurt my back and couldn't do ANYTHING for a while. But I'm up now and can do a little very light housework. I'll be glad when I can exercise again and do good weight-loss food prep.
I've managed to lose 2 lbs. in the last couple of weeks. (It's easy to lose when you can't get up to eat or snack anytime you want. Ha-ha)
Anyways, back a few weeks or so ago, when I was keeping my two grandsons for five days, I took them bowling once. It had been about 30 years since I had gone, and I'm telling you, my body felt COMPLETELY different! 
I felt like I only had HALF the body that I used to have. (So, this is what it feels like to be old and feeble!) I asked the alley manager how old his oldest customer is - and he told me a 91 year-old woman!!! Well. If she can do it, so can I -- again -- someday, of course.

If she can do it, so can I -- again -- someday, of course.I've known for a long time that I need to re-develop all of my body's muscles. I think that all of the "diets" that I've been on (plus years of not enough activity) has robbed me of muscle tissue. Plus, I'm older, so my bones have gotten a little thinner, too.)
Well, when I went bowling, it REALLY hit home, in a BIG way, that I need to "bulk up." So, I've decided to do muscle-building workouts three days a week - when my back gets better. (Plus aerobics, as usual.)
Sorry if I've bored you. That's just what's been on my mind lately.
Wishing you success! Later.
