No Pain, No . . . . Yes! Pain!!

When I started back on my treadmill I couldn't go far without getting a pain in one of my leg muscles. I decided it was my shoes. (My ancient, ugly, scuffed shoes!) So I bought new shoes. (Quite lovely ones at that I might add!) They helped, quite a bit actually, but still had some amount of pain. I laid off a few days, thinking the rest would help. Nope. Still hurt.

I'm back on the treadmill now, but I'm taking it easier. Not as far, and not as fast. And I put sports cream on my leg muscle afterward so it doesn't stay sore. I figure it's better to do that than it is to go further, faster, but not be able to go but 2 or 3 times a week.

It's tough getting old.

Why I Adore My Husband!!!

I was whining about why I hadn't become lean and svelte, or at least hadn't lost enough weight that people aren't oohing and ahhing after me! After all, I'm watching my food, and I'm treadmilling almost daily!

He said, "It's probably because muscle weighs more than fat!"
