Tale of Wal-Mart Woe

Well... walking through Wallyworld was NOT as successful as I had anticipated. I managed to walk half way through the store and then my back started cramping and my legs started shaking. Mind you, that's not half way AROUND but THROUGH. I wanted to cry. My expectation was that I'd be able to make that shopping trip on foot. We only needed a couple of things. Stitch Witch, Poster Frames and a Belt for Shecky. That was it. I couldn't handle it.

Today, my knees are KILLING me with each step. My back is very sore and tires easily. Damn it. I got a huge reality check last night with this foray through the store. I really thought I was doing better than that.

I realize I'm doing well. 31 lbs in 7 weeks is NOTHING to sneeze at. Its a significant weight loss. I'm moving more. I'm climbing the stairs more. I'm exercising in the water. I still have a long, LONG way to go.

Sunday I managed to cook dinner for Mom, Dad, Shecky and I. It was good. I was exhausted after. I DID manage it though. Baby... steps. I need to keep reminding myself its all got to come in baby steps.

Too bad when they were handing out patience I thought they meant PATIENTS ... and hid... heh.
