Honestly, probably the biggest problems are: 1. comparing myself to my frienemy 2. expecting faster results. I am averaging 38 miles of walking a week and this week I have added 4 hours of water aerobics. Slow. Steady. (hoping for patience.) One day I'll get there. Slowly. But. Surely.

I use a FitBit to track on MFP and with my activity I "earn" extra calories (like so far today with my walk I earned 138 calories) I am on the fence about whether or not I should allow myself to use them, KWIM? Most days I don't, but some days, for the safety of others I do use them.

Can't wait for her to make it to stupid menopause, too. *pouts
