Good morning, Grainiacs! It's been a while, I know.
Let me re-introduce myself.
My name is Strawberry and I'm a food-aholic and a hater of exercise. Truth be told I love Netflix and popcorn but decades of sedentary living and overeating have left me fat and out of shape.
Years ago I started a blog to help keep me real. I shared ups and downs and all-arounds (yes, I AM talking about my hips!). I lost almost 20 pounds...maybe 20 pounds...it's been so long I'm not sure anymore.
What kept me going was talking daily to you. I received "kudos" and "hang in there" and "I know exactly what you're talking about" in response to my posts. I needed that; I needed you; and I still do.
Life keeps happening. I schedule (and you all know I am NOT a scheduler) and blockades keep getting in the way: seminary classes, a move, an ailing parent, yada yada yada.
You know what? Yes! Life does happen, but there are plenty of svelte people out there who have lost weight while attending to "life" matters.
Life is gonna keep happening-- that's a good thing, right? The alternative? Not so great if you aren't ready to die. I need to stop with my excuses and get on board the "lose weight while life is happening" cruise ship. Otherwise I will be buried in a grand piano box.
So, are you ready to walk this bloggy road again with me? I sure need you if you will come along.
Getting back with it, Strawberry
