why whinging weightloss?

I started this blog to out myself as a couch potato and to keep a record of my whinging weightloss journey.  The reason I called it that is because I have to drag myself kicking and screaming into any kind of energetic and motivated mood and I can come up with a number of excellent excuses and complaints to sabotage my goals.  So hence this blog was born and with a humorous take on my fear of change of any kind, I set forth my whinges herewith.   So a bit about me.   When I was a kid I was obsessed with horses and rode, groomed, fed, talked and ran after horses all day and night.  Then I got over horses (shock horror gasp) and became obsessed with learning the guitar and well........my outside life went down hill from there.........I sat around strumming guitars and composing deeply melancholic songs, all hunched over my guitar with my wild hair hiding my face from the world.  This method of guitar playing was completely the wrong way to hold the damn thang and so I have a rather nasty case of 'frozen shoulder' which is kind of an rsi type thing.  So why is this relevant?  Well its the first of my complaints, I am out of alignment and my hips are uneven and then one leg is shorter than the other which leads to painful feet when I try to power walk.  There you go, its quite a realistic problem.

So walking is difficult and jogging is out of the question and I don't ride mad horses anymore.  I quite like swimming, but am pretty slack in getting and finding large bodies of water even though its just a bus ride away to the nearest pool or a dip in a small harbour inlet.

Well that's enough of a welcome committee for now!
