Steroids

It seems that we all know someone who is, was or might be on steroids... heck, if you look at the news there are only like 4 athletes that aren't on "performance enhancing drugs"

but as for me and my households...I don't want them!

I have been on steroids every spring since moving to Atlanta because my sometimes exercise or stress induced asthma is also allergy induced. GRRRR!!!!

While athletes might be dying to have a doctor knowingly and encouragingly supply steroids...I DON'T LIKE IT.  In real life on steroids...you don't bulk up in that one area that was your weakness - you get bigger everywhere and your appetite increases and you eat more and I don't have a personal trainer and the ability to workout for 6hours a day because it is my job to be fit.

Being on steroids for me means potentially gaining back the 30lbs that I worked hard to lose, it means having to work harder than 2 a days to lose 3lbs in a week...sure it means being able to function because I can actually breathe but it isn't worth it. So I cower in doors in hopes to not have the pollen inflame my lungs, co-washing, washing or just rinsing my hair every other day and lots of prayer.

vent over....
