Here we are, on another dark, cold, gloomy Saturday. How’s that for an opener? I bet you can guess how my week went. :-).
I didn’t have the amazing, productive week I had hoped for. I’m sick. I’ve been sick for a week now. Not sick enough to keep me from doing things. And that is the problem. If I had spent a few days in bed, drinking herbal tea and sleeping, I’d probably be all better now. But I didn’t. So I’m still kind of yucky. The only exercise that was had was on Thursday. I did a light treadmill for 35 minutes. I started to do my lower body weights that afternoon, but I got distracted and quit after my quads.
The happy news? I can cross my legs now. Isn’t that incredibly cool? There are probably many of you that can’t relate, but I am sure there are some out there who can. I’ve never been able to cross them well, I think because structurally, my legs are too close together. I paid attention to these things when I was younger. But for many years now, I couldn’t cross them at all. I am pleased to announce that I can cross them again. I don’t need to hear about spider veins. I know. But still, possessing the ability is worth cheering about! Hooray!
As usual, I’m hoping to do better next week. I hope you’re week has gone better than mine. How’s it going out there?

Yay for leg crossing! I completely understand what you’re saying 🙂
Enjoy! It’s those small things that keep you motivated.

Thank you so much. You’re right, I was sooooo excited when I made that discovery.

My favorite weight loss discovery was when my old underwear fell off of me! Being able to cross your legs is a big deal. Keep that in mind so that you aren’t tempted to blow off exercise even after you have gotten better.

My first week was less than spectacular although due to the need to eat up thanksgiving leftovers and my sister coming to visit. I did, however, have some small successes. I drank lots (although not enough) water and made my tasty homeade veggie soup to have around all week. I haven’t weighed myself, which is probably a good thing 🙂
I am so happy for you and the leg crossing!
