I just want to lose weight.....


Don't we all wish that was true!!  Well I managed to pack on the pounds while living in Spain.  I'm not sure why.  Might have had something to do with all the Sangria and Patatas Bravos.  But, I walked about every day!

 China must be doing me well.... I am down 3 kilos!  That is a bit over six lbs for you, Americans.   Not bad for the last three weeks.  I'm not even trying.  I guess this is a perk for living in a four story townhouse.  I make more trips from the ground floor to the top floor at least once a day.  And from there to my bedroom about 1000 times a day.  Because I can never remember more than one thing at a time.  Sigh. 

Next week, I'm going to sign up for a personal trainer.  Damn it, I am going to be skinny again!  OK... at least in better shape.  The Chinese are just too skinny here, and I can't handle being the fat American.  Plus, I would never be able to find clothes!  So this New Year, there will be no weight loss goal.  It's going to get done!
