day time TV will rot your mind. I should never have turned that thing on. I am watching Maury right now. it is sad. They are talking about overweight, no, make that obese children. we are talking, 3 years to five years old, weighing in at over 100 lbs. its so bad that they can not breath at night, one boy must be hooked up to a machine at night to breathe, another little girle sleeps sitting up as she can not breathe. the saddness. When I was eleven years old I was maybe 60-70 lbs, and we had taken a trip and stopped to visit my god parents in NY. Their daughter, five at the time weighed 95 lbs. I couldn't fathom. could not, and still can't. Now, I understand that I am by no means svelt and fit, but I am no where near obese. One five year lod boy on the show weighs 212 lbs. oi.
and who can we blame for this, how does it get to this point? They show the tempatantrum the child throws when not given everyhting it wants to eat, they also showed what the child will eat at each meal... mind you, one meal for them is a whole days worth of food for me. I blame the parents in some instances. the 212 lb boy, I think was 95 lbs at two years or something, I am htinking that there might be something medical to this one. but still.... they have their work cut out for them. jesus.... look at the food they are feeding them!!!! gah! Holy crap, that's one months of groceries for me, bloody hell! these people are killing their children. ten glasses of juice AFTER EVERY meal.
with that said, this week was the week that I started to crack down on myslef in regards to diet, exercise, and job hunting. I needed a little discalpine myself I guess. I am having a hard time finding exerise that I can do that will not hurt my knee. Once spring hits, biking and walking will not be a problem. I have a new work out video, it is great, I feel the after effects, however, the knee, not so good.
with all this said, I think I am going to carefully plan my meals for the rest of the day. geez. that, and I will be turning off the TV.

I am in exactly the same spot. Who do we blame for our lives? I've decided to blame me, stop feeling sorry for myself and get off my ass. We should meet and have a "kick the worlds ass" coffee break and plan the "take over" of our lives.
