Cest La Vie
Apparently I cannot escape the bad genes in my family, especially from my Mum. It's not her fault, she didn't gift wrap them and give them to me, she passed them on hoping that they would remain healthy as I grew. Well, today, I got the bad news that my back is pretty much screwed. The arthritis has worsened, I have a curvature in the spine and bulging discs. There isn't anything to be done for the arthritis unfortunately, but if I lose weight, I can take a lot of the pressure off my back. Being overweight is a nightmare. Anyone that is overweight, or has been overweight will understand this completely. It is hard to shift excess kilos, but when you do, you feel fantastic. Over the years I've tried a lot of things, but in the end, I don't believe that I'm ever going to be at my goal weight. If I can lose a small amount, that would be great. I've promised so many times to lose weight over the years, but without much success. I guess I just enjoy food too much. I will still be trying as I really don't want to end up with severe back problems at my age, it's just not right. My kids deserve better, so does Richard. Please Goddess, I little luck would be awesome right about now.
