Dear Buttercup
By and large, since I was sixteen, I’ve gone running at least once a week. I’ve never been a stellar runner—as anyone who has ever known me a hot second will tell you—but I’ve persevered on like the best of the penguins. There have been a few extended exceptions: two surgeries (on the relative minor side I would say), the time I broke my foot the day after I turned thirty, and a couple of lengthy Lupus flares. That last one . . . that is me these days. I haven’t been running in six months, and for the first time since 2009 I haven’t done a long run race (specifically, a half marathon). To take it even farther, I haven’t done an exercise class since last spring . . . yeah.

How I Lost Weight Without Intense Exercise
It All Started With Lack Of Exercise I started to gain weight in my late teens. As a kid, I had a horse and I was horseback riding every day and was showjumping basically every weekend. I was really fit back then, I assure you that. My main interests shifted in my late teens, and you can possibly guess the direction? Boys! And I went to school in another town so it became too time-consuming for me to have a horse, so I sold it. Poor eating habits and less training made me start to gain weight.
