You know, I forgot to post something today. I was busy doing things that aren’t blogging. Like exercising. I rejoined my fitness center and also joined their Crazy Eights program, where you pay $20 to lose eight pounds in eight weeks. It’s sort of like a bet; if you lose the weight, you get your money back, plus you win a share of the kitty made from the people who either dropped out of the program or didn’t lose a pound a week. Last time, only 30% of the people in the program finished it. The kitty is around $3600. I think I’m on target, but I’ll know when I step on the scale tomorrow.
Also, you know those ellipticals with the stair-like motions? They are evil. My legs have not yet recovered from Friday’s workout.
And you know what inspired me to rejoin the gym? Not having osteoporosis. Getting those test results got me to get into a regular diet and exercise routine again.
I’m going to be skinnier by the time my birthday rolls around next month. I can deal with that. Maybe next summer I can actually have that flat stomach I’ve been shooting for the past two years. Or at least, as close to flat as I can get. I don’t think I’ll ever go back to my smoking weight. I was pretty skinny back then. Probably should have been ten pounds heavier. I look positively anorexic in those old pictures. No wonder everyone wanted me to eat more.
Your regularly scheduled snark news will return tomorrow.
