WHY NOW?

I've struggled with weight all my life. My childhood memories center on diets, candy, restriction, deprivation, hurtful remarks by other children and teachers. I've never had a healthy relationship with food. So now I'm 65 years old and I've lost track of how many times this plan, this diet, this exercise program, this whatever was going to be the answer for my weight issues.

I've struggled with weight all my life. My childhood memories center on diets, candy, restriction, deprivation, hurtful remarks by other children and teachers. I've never had a healthy relationship with food. So now I'm 65 years old and I've lost track of how many times this plan, this diet, this exercise program, this whatever was going to be the answer for my weight issues. Although there have been different motivations to lose weight through the years, now that I've just had my "officially elderly" birthday, I have health issues that will keep me from living to be 100 if I don't lose weight. I'm also retiring 12-7-2010 and wouldn't it be nice to start retirement with a healthy and fit body? Do I dare hope this time I can successfully sustain a weight loss of 90 pounds?

Linda - how are you? Thank you for your honest comments on my "liar" blog. Ah, the black hole of denial. I tend to go to rationalization and apathy, rather than denial, but the results are the same. Honest accountability is a heavier load to carry, some days, but is always a healthy thing to bring along on this journey. I hope you are well. I like your quote about the good cook, bythe way.

emoticon very much for your kind comment on my blog, 'Hiking near Gerberoy in a winter wonderland'! Although we don't get a lot of snow in Paris and it doesn't last for very long, I think I would miss it if I didn't see any anymore. So I understand how you must feel.

Thanks so much for the Spark Goodie and the nice note. I was afraid I would have to hike alone, but I have three volunteers already to go with me - YAY!
Happy hiking to you!
