I hesitate to say it but I think I'm on the mend. I BETTER be. I have barely been out of the apartment for a week and all I seem to do is sleep 24/7. BORING. I need to be done with that. I'm getting out of the house and running errands today so hopefully I won't overdo it.

I stand by the positive thinking slash happy thoughts outlook. I stand by the MonaVie thing. And as soon as I'm well I'm gonna start muscle building like I talked about. Seriously. I don't make empty promises and proclamations. I am gonna do that thing and let you know the results. I will. I mean, listen, I watched Extreme Makeover the other day because it always makes me cry and ... I saw this one about this southern guy from Kingsport, Tennessee (I have relatives there) who had lost 200 pounds in one year. He had done it the hard way. But ... his skin didn't bounce back. Need I say more? Oh man. It was truly difficult to look at and imagine. Now, I don't know why it is that happened because he's young enough for his skin to bounce back. I have a friend who got the gastric bypass at the same age, he had always been VERY big, he lost 180 or something and HIS skin bounced back. So ... I don't know but I suspect that muscle building might have something to do with it. (he also didn't eat enough protein and was somewhat anemic. Sorry vegetarians. YAY protein. I loves me some cheese.) So I'll do it. I'll muscle build and report back. I DON'T WANT TO, but I will.

In the meantime, for those of you who haven't been feeling well and haven't been able to work out, like myself, get off your own backs. I had to and it helped. I mean, I was on my back in BED and on the COUCH ... sleeping. But I had to stop beating myself up about not getting anything done. It doesn't help. Who knew?
