Crumbly
So I've been gone again for a while. Not really gone, though wouldn't a trip to a lovely vacation spot be just the thing right now? Anyway, though I've been gone from the internet, I've been quite present in my own life.The greatest mistress of my time lately has been my walking schedule. It's quite difficult to exercise with both EDS and fibromyalgia, but I always feel better when I do. The weather has been so beautiful here the past few weeks and my elliptical has been off-limits due to snake infestation so I decided to take to the trails. Since I hit forty I have gained at least 30 pounds. Most of this came on gradually and in part can be attributed to hypothyroidism. While treatment of my hypothyroidism has been successful, I have never lost any weight. A nasty confluence of peri-menopause, age, and illness have conspired against me. That, and I like food too much to starve myself. I remember reading that to be truly fit one should walk 5 miles a day. Considerin
