It’s been almost 6 months since I was getting pumped to start getting in shape again! Then life happened. I lost my grandpa and then a cousin (different sides of my family) and my life just got way off course.
It’s been 6 months of depression, comfort eating and just feeling off.
About a month ago, I started having heart palpitations. It turns out my thyroid was super active and most likely the cause for it. My doctors wanted to make sure it wasn’t serious. I had a heart monitor test done as well as an echocardiogram. Thankfully the results looked normal.
However it’s scary to think of having all these health issues at my age. I’m borderline obese and just not happy with myself.

It’s time to take my life back. Start exercising and eating better again. Not letting the Seroquel cravings and comfort eating win.
Today I started by doing an hour on the treadmill. Those who know me know I loathe that thing. I would much rather be outside walking. But, until spring gets here, the treadmill it is!
Just Keep On Walking, Katie, Just Keep On Walking!
