Lose weight the fun way.

Today was a good day!!! I was able to walk a half a block before my back starting hurting again. YAY!!! PROGRESS!!! I haven't been able to walk any distance for a few months, so I'm really happy I was able to do that. Hopefully, with each passing day, I will get keep getting better and better. :-)

I'm still coughing like crazy though. I ended up eating the whole bag of cough drops hoping it would stop the cough. NOT!!! LOL!!! At least I didn't gain weight from doing that, but I didn't lose either. :-)

I did some research & read online that slippery elm is good for coughs, GERD, and other things. I went to the Vitamin Shoppe to get some. Hope it helps!!! I'll see what happens in a few days.....

It is Day 4, & I'm still going strong. For lunch, I ate a half of a sandwich (slice of turkey salami & turkey bologna with mayo on honey wheat bread), and for dinner, I ate a bowl of chili bean soup & a salad. Feeling good!!! Getting ready to drink a 20-oz cup of lemon ginger tea & chill as we all wait for the New Year to come in. KITCHEN IS CLOSED!!! :-)

I WANT TO WISH YOU ALL A VERY HAPPY, HEALTHY, & PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR!!! HUGS & LOVE TO EVERYBODY!!! LOVE YOU!!! :-)

Happy New Year to you too and whoohoo any distance walking is better than none, great job and so happy for you. So sorry you have that nasty cough, your chest must be killin... I wish you the best too for 2016, your health returns and you get you groove back... love n hugs to you too...

Thanks sooo much Sandy!!! I was sooo excited when I realized I could do it!!! Girl, I can't wait til I'm able to get my 20,000+ steps in again!!! :-) And yes, my chest hurts every time I cough. My stomach even hurts when I cough too. It hurts like it would after doing lots of kettlebell squats!!! That's how hard I've been coughing!!! I hope I get some relief very soon. Six months is a long time to be coughing, especially with my doctor putting me on Prednisone for a couple of months & then finally saying I have GERD. Something has to give me relief because taking Nexium, an nose inhaler, & a pump isn't doing it.... :-( Wishing you all the best in 2016 too mamacita!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! HUGS & LOVE!!! :-)
