Boycott the Scales!

Since I stopped running and going to the gym all the time, I stopped weighing and measuring myself.... Then just last week got the itch to weigh myself. Stupid! I knew what was coming and went and did it anyway! 5lbs. Not lost, but found... found its way BACK onto my body. humpf! So no more of that. I think I'll surrender to being overwieght for a decade or two.. Now thats just me being despressed and silly. It'll probaby be only a little while longer....until we have our next kid.... So the roller coaster [which I have never been on before] begins. Life's about the rides, right?! I guess I just have to "smile and wave" "smile and wave"- oh! and laugh it off as much as I can!

Still not doing much

Both of us have been sick [for almost a month!] and BOB has been packed.. YUP! We moved! Maybe this week we'll take Bently and BOB for a walk in the neighborhood!

My Jogging / Walking Buddies

My Baby and I take walks now.. with our best bud BOB! I bought it so we could go for runs on trails.. but ... walking does just fine :) He loves is and so do I!!!

Extended Break.

Went to the doctors. For those of you who know me, going to the doctor is on my list of things I just don't like to do [I'd rather clean toilets] .. anyhow.... I cannot run until our son is almost weaned and until then, can't do much. [unless I want to loose my milk- which is plentiful when I'm not running and sparse when I am]. I can do minimal jogging..but mainly walking and Yoga and Pilate's and light weight lifting. That is something.

I've chosen to follow the doctors orders this time, especially since the health and well-being of our son is on the line here. I'm pretty bummed but have chosen my family over being a size 2 again for right now. Since he isn't on any solids until his first birthday, I'm his source of nourishment :) I had to withdraw all of my race entries, bummer.. but they were all cool about it. I had 4 races to withdraw from, not including this past month. Looking on the bright side.. I have a little extra money for our move, Christmas presents and new clothes! This is only temporary and when I do anything for exercise, I'll note it so I can keep track :)

So here's to taking it at a snails pace and enjoying the beautiful scenery as we go!
