Noom Goes the Ry-namite




I have a lot of reasons I got fat again.  I won't belabor them here.  

But I did get heavy again.  Which is a bummer.  I was doing fantastic before COVID, and the arrival of COVID obviously meant gym-time took a hit.  And this happened and that happened, and I kind of quit caring and fooled myself into thinking I was doing fine.  I was not.

My job is work-from-home, and I have no kids to cart around, so there are days when I literally do not go further than the front or back porch.  And leaving the house means spending money.  My car is 9 years old and has 53,000 miles on it, so we're not exactly out and about.

Post-COVID I'd been slowly working on getting back to a healthier life, but something else happened:  I turned 50.
