Okay. So. Here's where I'm at.
I am 40 days away from a pretty intense surgery that I wanted to lose 30 pounds by. I have not lost 30 pounds. I have lost 2-6 depending on the day.
I am bummed.
I was told I can't do ANYTHING I was doing because my back is more messed up than I ever had any idea it was. (It was the twisting and leg raise type things that were killing me)
I live in Seattle. Every time I think about running the sky pokes its stupid face out at me, and drools all over the place. (It rains here constantly)
Can't afford a gym.
Is there any reason I couldn't just fill my backpack up with books, weigh it on my scale and use it instead of a weight/weights?
Has anyone ever done this? What'd you use?
I officially do not care how crazy I look. lol. Not like I cared much before but I'm braving the Seattle rain to run in my polka dot pajama bottoms so I might as well start lifting backpacks/babies or something, right?
