Bubonic Plague

I am afraid I won't be doing much for now as I am dying of the plague. It's really unfortunate. I was looking forward to getting going on this weight loss thing now that we're (pretty much) settled. I have some kind of bug, I'm guessing a particularly nasty strain of flu that makes my throat feel as if I'm gargling broken shards of glass every time I swallow and making my body feel like I've somehow managed to overdo a workout that involved even my hair and my eyelids. I alternate between burning up and freezing and am beginning to wish for death. I will post again with any updates. I'm going on 36 hours, (it feels like 30 days) so I hope it will pass soon and all will be well. However, if I do die, I want you all to know how much I love and appreciate you!

First Post from Akron

Yay! We finally have internet and I can begin posting again! I have lost some weight while here, not because I'm trying but because we've been so busy! Plus, we have stairs. I'm surprised at the difference this makes. When we first got here I trudged up the stairs slowly, but now I can dash up rather spryly! I don't breathe as hard afterward, either. I plan to start doing He Did Deliver Me From Bondage on Monday. I'm glad to hear everyone else is doing so well. That's awesome about the soda, Anbo! I'm starting to get pretty sick of my big fat body and can't wait to see some measurable results.
