Looking for Techie Moms

So here's the deal: I just had my gall bladder out on Thursday. I no longer have a choice, unless I want to be utterly miserable every time I indulge, I have to change my life, NOW. Being in the hospital for a week (not eating at all) and having an organ removed gave me a nice 13 pound jump start, but I'm not resting on that, no sir.

My husband has been told he has a week to get my recumbent indoor bike upstairs, because as soon as the doctor says I can, I'm adding in daily 30 minute rides (and I ride hard). I haven't been because stairs are rough on my joints (I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, basically I'm crazy flexible and can't be on my feet for very long), so the excuse is going away. It's going to live in front of our big picture window in the living room so I can watch my son and ride, or watch tv and ride, regardless of the weather. I'm hoping to get enough weight off by summer that I can take longer walks with my son.

Speaking of my beautiful boy He's almost 15 months old and just figured out how to walk without holding onto anything the other day. He's tall enough that I can touch his head without bending over, so he's gonna take after his daddy instead of his short-stuff mama. We're still nursing, we cosleep, and his vocabulary is developing just fine even if it's signed rather than spoken!

I started at 238 pounds, today I weigh 235 pounds. The ultimate goal is a nice toned 150. I have 75 pounds to go. Everything's easier with friends!

Oh, the techie part, right... well, I'm about as internet addicted as they come. I'm pretty much ALWAYS logged on, one way or another. Totally up for Skype-ing with workout buddies!
