Reality has hit me that I am far too fat (there is no other word for it, sorry.) I am getting heartburn/indigestion (whatever you want to call it) on a daily basis and it's sometimes unbearable. This is one thing that will keep me on the healthy bandwagon. I am also turning forty this year. Yikes! I don't want to be fat and forty. I am realising that my recovery from my hip surgery (last April) is hampered by my weight but not one doctor/surgeon/physio has mentioned that to me. I notice that bending over is a bit more difficult which at first was hampered by my recovery after surgery but I realised the other day it was because my belly was in the way :( Not good.
But my problems are small compared to others. This week, someone told me that they have been diagnosed with breast cancer. They are at the beginning of a difficult journey.
I also volunteer for a charity called Post Pals. They send happy post to children with long term illnesses. They face a difficult journey every day so I am sure I can manage to take positive steps to improve my health.
Anyway, there's leftover cake at my house if anyone wants any.
