Saturday, May 8

Wow!  Another week gone.  Time flies when you're having fun.  I spent the day with a friend making vegetable soup.  It was great and proof that meat is not necessary.  I can't say that I can live without chicken and fish but red meat can take a hike as far as I'm concerned.  I really think unless I kick it up a notch and start regualr exercise that I will stay the same weight forever.  I don't like weighing myself however, when I do I'm surprise that my weight doesn't seem to shift as quickly as I would like.  I keep telling myself that it took two years to gain this weight and if it takes two years to remove it so what?  Patience has never been my strong suit.  luv 2 all keep plugging along.
