My Goals:
I want to lose 55 pounds, because I think it will be better for my MS. I want to increase my steps to 10,000 also.
My Program:
I can't over-heat because it makes the MS worse, hence no sweating. I use the trike in lieu of a wheelchair, figuring I can at least get some exercise when sitting. If I have to walk - I can hold on to the bike. I also plan on fruits and vegetables with as little cooking as possible.
I am also placing a sign on the back of my trike, advertising my weight/loss numbers (YIKES), hoping it will spark conversation and inspire people to my blog, to cheer me on and hold me accountable.
Personal Information:
I'm 54. I moved from Idaho to San Francisco a year ago (2011), because the weather is easier on the MS. I LOVE it here. I'm single, and seem to prefer it that way. I'm learning the city by taking the MUNI everywhere, and biking, but the hills SUCK for biking on a one-speed trike.
Other Information:
I trained my Golden Retriever to be my Service Animal. I also have 2 cats that came from Idaho with me. I hate most vegetables cause they give me heartburn, but love most fruits. I live on 800.00 a month in one of the most expensive cities in America. It's an adventure.
