27 pounds

I got curious today,

and asked Dr. Joe if they had a scale

in the rehab center

where I'm doing my physical therapy

for my new knees.



I don't weigh myself often

or really at all. Weight is not a

reliable determinant

of health, so why bother?



Well, I bothered today because

my clothes have been annoyingly loose,

my bra straps are showing,

and my thighs are rubbing together because

my pants don't fit snugly.

I wanted an answer.



If the scale in the physical therapy office is correct,

I've lost 27 pounds since the left knee replacement

at the end of July.



Don't applaud.

I have mixed feelings about it.

Other people seem to believe that

losing weight is somehow a determinant

of health and happiness.

I am not other people.
