Old story, new book

INMom

My story is the same as most....my weight goes in cycles and it is currently up and I have made the decision to make it go back down. I enjoy being active, but carrying this much extra weight puts me at risk for injuries durng my summer race season. Thank you in advance for any support you offer!

Injuries brought me a newfound determination to lose this weight. I started taekwondo and absolutely loved it, but doing a jump kick two weeks ago destroyed my knee and ankle. What kind of racing do you do?

I decided to take middle age on....kicking and screaming! This will be my 3rd season doing sprint triathlons. I grew up as a swimmer, have learned to like road biking, and for the run.....I can always walk it so anything I run is a bonus. 3 surgeries on my right knee does limit the amount of running I do as well.

Swimming is my sport of choice. Considering joining a Master's Team for the summer, but have to know I can count on my husband to take on more with the kids. For 2 years he has worked 50-60 hr. weeks and gone to school full time.....now he is about finished so it is my turn.....sounds fair, don't you think?
