3. Get my health issues under control.

My Program:
WEIGHT LOSS
Get active...move.
Start working out for ten minutes, Increase time after two weeks.

Option 1 is get to the gym, where they have weight machines, studio classes. pool,sauna, and various kinds of exercise equipment.

Option 2 is working out at home. I have a wide variety of videos to guide me, Yoga, Tai Chi, Qi Gong. I also have tapes from Jillian, Biggest Loser, even Richard Simmons. No excuses allowed. I have resistance bands, weights, kettlebells, and the Step. Walking is always an option.

Track everything you eat

Measure your food

If you feed your body junk, it will give you junk in return,so think twice about what you eat!

Add more fruit & vegetables to my diet
Reduce red meat, and
try poultry & fish
(Not sure on the Fish)

SELF IMPROVEMENT
Learn to love Myself

Stop the negative self talk.

Rid myself of I can't.
I CAN AND WILL

"We must not, in trying to think about how we can make a big difference,
ignore the small daily differences we can make which, over time,
add up to big differences that we often cannot foresee."
-Marian Wright Edelman

"If I had to select one quality, one personal characteristic that I regard as being most highly correlated with success, whatever the field, I would pick the trait of persistence. Determination.
The will to endure to the end, to get knocked down seventy times and get up off the floor saying. "Here comes number seventy-one!"
- Richard M. Devos

"Three of the most powerful words in the English language are 'I AM RESPONSIBLE.' It's tough to do, but when the day comes that you can say those words, believe them, and mean them, it will be the most liberating moment of your life. Taking responsibility for all of your results, for better or for worse, is taking back your power to create results in your life."
-Tom Venuto

Its up to you to make your goals and dreams a reality, Sparkfriend! Take responsibility, and do your best each day to make progress. You are totally worth the effort, you know!
I hope your week has been great so far!
Hugs,
Pixie

"How do you build up your bank account? By putting something in it everyday.
Your health account is no different. What I do today, I am wearing tomorrow.
If I put inferior foods in my body today, I'm going to be inferior tomorrow, it's that simple.
-jack LaLanne
