2012: Staying in Shape

I'm an educator who gets so busy with grading that I have "fallen off the wagon" with fitness and dieting every fall semester. In January 2011, I got serious about using SparkPeople and since then have maintained an exercise and healthy-eating routine. I lost the weight I intended to lose but more importantly I've been averaging a little more than 1000 exercise minutes every month. I earned more than 12,000 exercise minutes in 2011 and plan to do the same in 2012.

You are welcome. No, I am not a cancer survivor (thankfully), but I was inspired by the amazing fight a dear friend continues to fight... two and a half years now... and he was only expected to make it 6 months... I am thankful you beat yours... and send you sympathy in your loss of your FIL.

Thanks for stopping by my blog and the suggestions. I love spices and berries with natural yoghurt. This list can be expanded to include more unprocessed 'treat' foods for those times I'm at risk of emotional eating. Enjoy Thanksgiving, especially the special people in your life.

Thank you for your thoughtfulness. I made lentil veggie soup for tonight's dinner...not quite chicken but everyone in the family eats it!

"Beautiful Woman Award! Once you've been given this award, you have to paste it on the wall of 8 women who deserve it. If you receive more than 3, you know you're really beautiful! If you break the chain, nothing will happen, but it's always good to know someone thinks you're beautiful inside and out."

Thanks for being there when I haven't been at my best. You are so kind and sweet. I am happy to have you in my circle of friends.
