I dusted off the treadmill

Yep!  I did.

Monday after a doctor appt. I crossed the street to shop at Kohl’s.  I received two gift cards to Kohl’s and have been badly in need of clothing, so I thought I’d shop while the sales were on.

It was kind of depressing.

No, that’s not me but she’s plastered her picture all over the internet so I didn’t think she’d mind me using it.  That’s kind of what I looked like when I tried on pants!

So, this morning I used my inhalers, put my O2 back on, dusted off the treadmill and walked on it…for a whole 10 minutes.  Hopefully tomorrow I will do 20 minutes, but I was very pleased with myself for even getting on it at all.  It’s been way too long.  I need to use the Total Gym, too.

There are all kinds of evil things still lurking in the house.  Cookies, coffee cake, desserts, crackers, etc.  I decided the best thing to do was feed them to my son, who is muscular and skinny.  He can burn them off better than I can!  He likes this plan, too.

This morning when his school was done I served him some warm coffee cake with Peppermint Mocha Coffee.  He loves me.

I will go try to burn off some more calories doing laundry, dishes, sweeping and so forth.  I need a calorie counter.  Anyone want to mail me one?

  1. That is how I have been feeling lately-- dealing with horrible bloating and a bowel obstruction. I bought myself some yoga pants because I can't quite fit into my jeans.

  5. This is my first visit to your blog. That pic scared me just a tad. ;) Time to get back to the program, huh? Well, maybe after I try that yummy looking chocolate cheesecake below! 2 of my faves in one! Gotta love that! Seriously, treats can't stay in our house... They literally call my name until they are all consumed. ;)

  8. Oh my! What a picture!! Feeling that way a little myself right now! :) Great job on getting up and getting going on the treadmill. It is 6 days into the new year and I have yet to get back into exercising at all. I just hate it. LOL I need to pray about that I think! :)

    Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that I popped over here from Julie's at " Wife Mom Nurse" I am always looking for new blogging friends. I love your blog and have enjoyed getting to know you a little. I f you are interested, I would love it if you would stop by and meet me and my family too.
    Have a great day,
