This is just wrong!

This year I have been working on my health and habits to live a longer life. That includes losing some extra pounds and continuing to excersice daily. Since April of this year I actually have dropped 15 lbs, but I have literally worked my butt off to get there. Ron on the other hand has not been on any kind of diet or excersice program at all. However, we both started a special VERY LOW calorie diet last week and guess what! He lost 14 lbs the first week. I lost five. NOW THAT IS JUST WRONG!!

What is it with us women that we first grow up taking care of our little brothers, then we go through monthly misery, then carry and deliver babies, take care of them and see that they all get a decent start on life, and to top it off - we can't lose weight in any easy manner?!? God must have had something special in mind when he created woman. I realize the world could not go around without us, but couldn't it be a little easier and less work to look good?

Don't get me wrong. I appreciate my life, my health and my family. Everything else really is secondary. I, however, got my vane gene from my Mom Ritva. She at 75 still looks amazing and has a great positive outlook on life. I want to be just like her when I am 75. So I better just keep on working so I will get there and be proud and confident in who I am - no matter what the outer core may look like!
