This post is a discussion of why using exercise dvds are a cheap way to work out. As some of my regular readers know, I workout exclusively with exercise dvds at home.

It was pretty neat clicking through my online health record to find out why I had an appointment with my doctor on May of 2007. But as I click through the appointment list, I notice that the online health record also list my “official weight” at every visit. I knew I should have taken off my shoes before hopping on the doctor’s scale!

According to Reader’s Digest, most women gain back the weight they loss for a wedding within a year of the marriage. I might have set a new record with my 2 months. It has to be the weather. Or it could be my serious face time with yummy food during my two week honeymoon. Whatever the case, my weight is up and my pants are tight.
