The Bionic Woman

Hi. I'm a type I diabetic.

It just sucks so much ass.

I got what I thought was the flu in February of 2000. It didn't go away for three months. Then I started to lose weight. Soon I had lost 80 pounds.

I won't lie to you. I was pretty excited to be wearing a size 8. But as diets go, I gotta say, I can't recommend it. It put me in the hospital for about six days.

This is all a very, very long story, one that I don't have time to tell. I would love to tell you the story, but it'll have to wait, because this particular area of my life is about to start to suck so much less.

Here's why.

The trainer is on her way to my house to teach me how to use it. I am beyond thrilled.
