Just like running, the most important thing is to not quit once you get going good, cause the real benefits come after you've been running for a couple of months. You really lose extra weight, your metabolism stays up, and you feel good all the time. Doing all that hard work to get up to a certain level, then relaxing, can really set you back, so onward and upward!
I hear you on the gas thing. You certainly shouldn't do anything that would be taken as an insult. On the other hand, taking care of that kind of stuff just to be helpful doesn't mean she's weak or dependent, and doesn't mean you "have to take care of her" because she's an idiot. It's just kindness.
And, well, er...she DID run out of gas!
But a minor issue. Sounds like you're making great progress. I'm proud of ya! Keep up the good work. You da man
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means. -- Inigo Montoya, 'The Princess Bride'
