back on track

but it is slow going! With my crappy thyroid it seems like changing my body is taking three times as long as the next person. This is complicated by my ability to get easily distracted. I can find a million reasons to not go to the gym and last week I skipped the weekend. Not good. This week I skipped Friday morning. I could have made it there and didn't. I was measured by the Great High Fiver on Thursday and it seems that I am making progress (he was high fiving me like he had Tourettes!) but I am still frustrated with how slow its going. It seems to me that something should jump start my thyroid, I imagine a tiny set of paddles the use when someone's heart stops buzzing my thyroid, but so far that imagery had not managed to boost anything but my imagination.  I did make it back to the gym today and hammered out 40 minutes on the elliptical, 10 on the bike, and 5 on the stair machine...which is a bitch, btw. But the GHF warned me that we would be hitting the stair machine and I, like the good student I always have been, wanted to study up and be prepared.  I don't know about prepared, but damn if my legs are going to forgive me! Tomorrow I'm going for ten minutes, and will be pleased if I make it for 6!
