Eat Fat, Lose Fat, Goes Biking w/Weight Watchers
Another week has rolled around and Sunshine and I are still exersizing. This last Saturday we broke out our bicycles and rode the Kiwanis Trail as far as Gady Road. From my house that’s a seven mile ’round trip. It’s a little further for Sunshine. It was chilly but it was a beautiful spring morning and since we were out early, there was little traffic, foot or otherwise. My apprecitation for God’s creation is a constant source of wonder for me. I love his choice of colors he paints each flower combination with. I love the breathtaking bursts of color in the birds that dart before us. Cardinals always remind me of the Blood of Jesus, I absolutely love to see them.
My weight loss thus far is 22 pounds. I’m quite happy with one pound a week at this juncture in my life. Besides, if I lose weight too fast some folks might think it is because I have cancer. Which of courses if you know me, you know I do. But other than that minor speed bump, my health overall is better than it has been in years.
Speaking of health…. I have been experiencing a bit of a sore ankle. Sort of feels like a shin splint, but then today there’s some swelling lower down near the heel with a tiny bruise on the top of my foot that looks susupisiously like a strain or sprain. I’m thinking it might be from a of a turn of the ankle in my new “too cute” shoes with the 3″ heels. I’m doing the R.I.C.E thing tonight and drinking a second glass of K-tea with Montmorency Cherry juice to take down the swelling. Sunshine and I have precious little time left before we have to part ways at least for the summer as my work situation will change. I don’t want to miss a day of her company while we have time so tonight it is rest, ice, compression and elevation… then biking tomorrow.
That’s it for now… Cat
