Bleah
I’ve been running around like a look, trying to get things organized for some serious project work at my job, so I haven’t really been able to write much, much less think about it. And then it dawned on my why I was in a bad mood.
I promised myself that I was going to write, and I haven’t for about 4 days. I don’t post everything here, but I am trying 
Physically I feel pretty okay. I’m not losing any weight, but I am definitely losing fat so my combination of jujitsu class, run/medicine ball, kendo, run/medicine ball workouts have been yielding some decent results. Honestly, if I changed the way I ate, I think I’d do even better. The problem is, I like food I like eating snacks around 3, and NO I don’t want a freakin orange, I want a SNICKERS BAR!!! 
I brought in a big water bottle and succeeded in draining 2 or 3 of them this week, so I’m not feeling as dried out either. I can’t this morning because I have a physical at 9:30. I have hypothyroidism, which means my thyroid doesn’t produce jack shit in the way of the hormones my body needs so I have to take synthroid. I need a 90 day supply because it’s cheaper and the doc said I hadn’t had any blood work done in a year, I’m about to turn 40, and I’m working out more so she wants to see me. (Man I hope her hands aren’t cold)
I’m feeling better already. Anyone who says blogging isn’t therapeutic doesn’t know what they are talking about. I’m gonna get the prince off to school and do a bit of writing before my dr. appt. Ack, I should take a shower too. Crud, I’m HUNGRY!

It sucks getting old! I’ve got a few years on you and your at the age of the “full” physical. Rubber gloves and all. Not fun and I think they should buy you dinner first.
Seriously, hope you start feeling better. Hope the weather gets better as well. We’re expecting high 70′s and some Santa Ana winds. If it makes you feel better the water temp is supposed to get down to the low 50′s…

I don’t think you’re going to find anyone here that will disagree about writing/blogging being therapeutic. We all feel that way!
Do you feel like you need to lose weight or are you just trying to feel better? One thing I noticed when I started running was that I didn’t lose weight. I gained it. It’s not that I was out to lose weight, because in all honesty, for my height, I could afford to put on a few pounds. But I was surprised that I gained it. Muscle, I guess. A few years ago, I was in a position to lose some weight. I completely gave up all sugary snacks. I said it was my lenten sacrifice and I never cheated. 40 days and no candy or treats. I have never been able to do that since. I’m the same way. When I’m craving chocolate, fruit is NOT going to cut it!

Mike – because of the family history, it was one of those “full” physicals
Try not to freeze your bits off in the super cold water.
Terri – to answer your question, it’s yes to both really. I want to lose weight and feel better. I also listened to a friends advice – stop getting on the scale.

lol – I am SO with you. I know I should snack on fruit, but CHOCOLATE is so much better!
BTW – I’m a little upset with you. I seriously can not afford to get sucked into another series – I’m still trying to get my sh*t together from the last one!
