My Catch-22

Recently, my husband and I got rid of one of our vehicles and became a one car family. Since I am home with the three kids all day, I figured this was good because we would be able to walk places and I would lose more weight than I was able to with only my small dietary changes.

Great plan, except that I injured my knee a couple of months ago and, since I am so fat, it is taking a long time to heal. When we do walk, I have to stay off it for the next day or so.

I am in a Catch-22 now; my knee won't heal until I lose weight, but I can't lose weight (by walking) until my knee heals. Lovely.

Now I need to figure out an exercise plan that will fit with my injury.

I'll keep you posted.
