Question:
Between the medications I take and my sedentary lifestyle, I’ve gained a lot of weight in recent years. It’s very depressing. I try to motivate myself to exercise, and it works from time to time — but not enough. Getting motivated to exercise is tough for everyone, and when your energy is depleted from a disease, too, it’s doubly hard. I rationalize that I’ve lost many pleasures with this illness. Food is one pleasure I still really enjoy, so I try not to beat myself up about it too much. How many smiling joggers have you seen lately, anyway?! I will start exercising again….tomorrow. -Ronni- *********************************** Building Awareness for Scleroderma Is Crucial to Finding a Cure Scleroderma Foundation (1/800-722-HOPE)
Response:
You dont, they are always frowning or have a pinched look on their faces. This is why I would prefer an eatathon to raise funds. Down here it could be oysters, mudbugs(crawfish) or watermelon. Sometimes exercising my brain is enough workout in one day but I do try to walk as it helps eliminate stress. Being diabetic like Gigi is too we are limited in what we cant or can eat, but hey I love my foods especially cajun,italian and mexican and I dive in and enjoy!!!!!!

Years before I was on a diet and just about everyone here on the newsgroup also has been on it. It is called SEAFOOD DIET? I sea food and I eat it. LOL Doris
Response:
Me too Doris! My problem is that I am still on it. Between the do’s and dont’s for the IBS and the diabetes its like rabbit food and cardboard and I am not a rabbit or a termite. Living in the south and growing up in the southwest, I love my corn bread and tortilla chips and once a month I allow these just to keep me happy. And as Ed put it "if found unconcesious administer chocolate". We only live once on this planet that I know of (please if you believe in reincarnation dont send me nasty mail) And I would like to enjoy some of lifes simple pleasures every once in awhile.
