I should really have my cholesterol tested. I never have, and going by my family history and dietary habits, I'm sure it's through the roof.
But my main motivation for wanting to lose weight is that I can't afford to buy new clothes.
I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early. And I'll just fade away.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
This is one of my favorite rants.
I'm definately on a weight-loss track now, but when I was SA's age and had a doctor say that to me? After I'd just dragged a back pack around Europe for three months? Goodgawdalmighty I was ticked.
Interestingly, when I dropped forty pounds my cholesterol went up a little. Its still well within healthy ranges, but my Doc and I both found it funny.

Yeah, me too. Plus, I *like* my currently-non-fitting clothes and want to wear them again.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I couldn't trust any coach/trainer/etc who'd make a decision like that, not even afterwards. I expect some GPs to not be thinking that way, but it's a coach's whole fucking job to be on the ball. The government isn't in a place to tell anyone about their team's fitness.

Home from the ER again. This is getting really, really old. At least this was a relatively short trip. But, get this.
I'm not allowed to leave the house till Tuesday...not even to walk the dog.
And they thought the steroids would make me cranky.

New Zealanders don't travel with their kids? Kinda like the way they think.

Oh man vw. You are under house arrest. Well - stay put. Get better. Find a good book or something and just give in.
Why, oh why, am I at work. This place is a ghost town. I know it is still early, but there are usually a fair number of early birds here. CJ came to work with me though, so he will keep me entertained. He wanted to check out the construction site next door.

I have radically accepted this and am trying to think of fun things to occupy my time.
Still frustrated.

Yep. I got four lovely pair of jeans when I reached my goal weight 18 months ago. Right now they're hanging in my closet, taunting me.

Oy! I'm sorry. Are they worried the cold air will aggravate the asthma or something?

That and the wind. It's supposed to get really cold/windy this weekend.
