Weighty Issues

I am ridiculously overweight. I have been overweight since I delivered Raquel 14 months ago. I have not been able to exercise at the level that I'm used to due to my footie issues. However, Friday, I found myself breathing extremely hard and I finally realized that "I AM RIDICULOUSLY OVERWEIGHT" and it is now affecting my Asthma.

I don't care that both my doctors told me to stay off exercises, I have started exercising and let me tell you, not only does it feel good, I'm breathing better!!!!!

Because of my height and body frame, I cannot allow fat to just sit and grow some more. I need to lose 25...preferably 30 pounds to feel healthy and have my asthma under control. Therefore, I have started working out at the gym and staying off...hmmmm...I don't eat much but I believe my problem is;

1. Not consuming a lot of water. I have been drinking ONE glass of water a day versus the 3 liters I am used to drinking.

2. I have been drinking lots of coffee with half & half and sugar, lots of it. I gave it up yesterday and I had to go through the incredibly painful coffee withdrawal process. I was not a fun person yesterday.

And because my 5th resolution of the year was to lose weight, I am determined to maintain my resolution and lose the stupid fat that is within me.

Cordially Yours,

Temporarily Overweight
