Sitting is hard to do.

I've always been an active person. Even though I am overweight, I move around quite a bit. This sitting and proping my foot up all evening is killing me. Yes, the toe is still swollen. I tried to make an appointment for yesterday, but nothing was available until this afternoon. So I will go and ask for those horrible prednisone that caused me to gain 15 pounds when I had to take them before. I doubt I will gain another 15 pounds by taking them for a short period of time, but I am afriad that I may see a small gain.

I am trying very hard to keep my calories low. The worst time for my bad eating habits is in the evening. Good for me, it's hard to get to the kitchen without some pain, so I think twice before going. Bad for me, I am "bored" so I feel the desire to eat more. I'm doing pretty good, though. I'm not consuming near what I did some time ago when I didn't care what I ate.

I ordered a few books the other day to help me with calorie counts. I can't wait to get them. I also ordered a new Richard Simmons video. It has songs from the 80's. I can't wait to get that either. I love the 80's!

I had better run, or I guess limp. I've got to get ready for work. I hadn't blogged in a couple of days so I thought I should at least say something, even if it's quick, this morning. Right Sean? ; -)

Thanks for reading,
Rachel
