Happy 4th of July. I hope that you're spending the day with someone you love--or at least like a lot. I'm spending the day at home. Last night, there were fireworks at the municipal stadium in Rocky Mount, which is just down the road from the Y. When I left the Y, there were people in chairs on the Y's lawn already waiting to see the fireworks. I didn't wait. I didn't need to see the fireworks last night. I HAD them...but that was then, this is now.
I took a big step last night and restored my profile on the dating website where I met Kevin. Not that I want to date anyone right now, because I don't, but because I need to get back out there eventually. So I restored the profile and we'll see what happens...
One thing I did want to share is the fact that I don't have the muscle strength that I had. One of the reasons we're supposed to exercise is because we lose muscle mass as we lose weight. When I first went back to the pool last week, I could swim for 30 minutes. Before I stopped going to the pool a few months ago (and 50 pounds ago), I could do an hour in the water. Last night, I worked for 45 minutes, so I'm getting there. I'm also able to get out of the pool in the deep end via the ladder--before losing the weight, I would walk out of the pool at the shallow end.
