about getting from point A to point B in the most interesting ways possible

If you're a large woman in America, your whole life is an opportunity to feel self-conscious, embarrassed, resentful and way too big. You can hide in the corner or on the couch, you can go to therapy, or you can put on your lycra bike shorts and get out there and move.

beginning, new permalink

show is cancelledI have just begun the process.

Last night, I lay awake while Sweetie slept. He had complained bitterly about how warm the bedroom was, and fell asleep within a couple of minutes of hitting the pillow.

I lay there, willing myself to sleep. It wasn't working. It was clear I wasn't getting enough exercise.

So, this morning, it began.

I just walked down 5 flights of stairs, and went on a walk through the Urban Renewal District. It's a walk of just over a mile (1.17 miles if you must be exact), with some stairs and slight inclines. I worked up a good sweat, and it felt great.

At lunch, I'm going to ride my bike across the river, get a hot dog (!) and go to the bike store to get a rain poncho. This is a big step, big step. Wuhoo!
