Looks like I'm not the only sluggish one whose body is crashing. Yesterday I tried all day to get into Typepad to blog but the system had completely crashed.
Today, I did get in and read the post from Typepad apologizing for the "sluggishness of the system." Baby, no need to apologize -- we are completely in sync.
Of course yesterday morning I wrote an entire entry that was eaten by the crash. It was a rant about Anna Nicole Smith's weight loss and how I was jealous of her and was even tempted to try Trimspa. I also bemoaned the fact that I have put on 20 freaking pounds in the last two years and how I feel fat, and how mad that makes me because I hate having negative body image thoughts, especially in light of the fact that I have an 7 year-old-girl who is at an impressionable age and who will most likely struggle with her own body insecurities in our nip-and-tuck, chew-and-puke, society.
To jumpstart my own body (and do something positive regarding my aging, ever expanding body) I pulled out my Jane Fonda step aerobic tape yesterday and did something about it. Jane is tough, but she's given me good results in the past, unlike my humungous treadmill that looms in my spare bedroom.
No matter how many miles I walk on that thing, I just don't lose any weight. So, I'm still sluggish, but I'm not ready to give up my body for lost. Not that I need to be stick thin (nor was I ever stick thin), but I do need to eat healthier, become more active, and nourish my body as much as I have been nourishing my mind of late.
