The Best I can Be

I'm still here...kind of been "lurking" because I'm not really in the exercise mode since I'm still waiting to see the Orthopedic Surgeon regarding my "wounded knee" next Tuesday.

I feel really bad because I'm unable to join all you gals in your exercise routines.  But I am keeping as active around the house here as I can.   I've even mowed the lawn a few times~but paid for it the next day with a really sore knee.  I just can't stand lounging around the house like a slug.  

I did stop by Curves yesterday because I got a call that I needed to come in and watch a video about a new feature at Curves.  It's like an electronic personal trainer at each machine.  So I watched the video explaining the new feature and signed up it.  Those who pay their own membership have to pay a little extra each month but mine is paid for by my Medicare supplement so it won't cost me anything.  YA~HOO !!!

I just hope the doctor has good news for me (i.e. no surgery) next week and that I can get back on track.  

Meanwhile, I have been reading your entries and envying you all from the sidelines.  You're all doing great.

Keep up the good work....Linda  http://journals.aol.com/lsfp1960/LindasWorld/

  Linda you aren't alone - I've only been lurking around here myself.  With some things going on in my life I just haven't had it in me to focus on weight loss efforts and I really should.
  
  Just keep active like you are doing - that is better than just sitting around doing nothing!

  I haven't made a proper entry in quite a while, too, and I have no excuse really.  I hope that your orthopedic appointment goes well tomorrow and that you'll soon be able to get as active as you like again.

  Well Linda, I've been totally off track lately too and I don't have a good reason, other than life being to hectic to take care of myself. I've been putting weight back on and not working out. Maybe we can get back on track together soon!

  Sounds like things are getting better, slowly but surely.  
  
  Hang in there.

  Sure hope your knee is better soon... don't overdo it, take it easy until the dr releases you... you'll be happy you did.
