In my efforts to become less than, to lose weight again (over one hundred pounds in sum), I'm trying to become greater than I am: physically and emotionally healthful.

My Goals:
I'm intent to lose eighty-six pounds, to reach the goal weight urged by a personal trainer at the gym I used to attend: 178 pounds.
At my heaviest, when I began the weight-loss process, I was 299 pounds. (Really. 2. 9. 9. But, for all intents and purposes, I was a 300-pound 30-something.)
My lowest weight, to date, has been 242, that when I was training for my first 5K, the "race" I ran in August 2011.
Since quitting my job in September 2011 to start my own business (www.copyshopcreative.ca), I've gained 22 pounds back again. I'd be elated to lose that much to begin.
(February 19, 2012)
My Program:
To foster physical health, I make a practice of choosing gorgeous whole and fresh foods and of swallowing at least eight glasses of water, a multivitamin, vitamins A, B, C, D and magnesium daily. (I believe nourishment comes from food, but I also believe in supplementation intended to lessen the risk of sickness, colds for instance, and of chronic disease.) I ran my first 5K, an act not long ago unimaginable, on August 27, 2011. I'm now following a regimen of daily strolls and occasional yoga, gentler exertions.
To focus on emotional wellbeing, I make a ritual of morning pages, as Julia Cameron suggests in her books, The Writing Diet and The Artist's Way.
