Starting over (again, and again)

I've been working on getting the habits back, but it seems so much harder this time than last. That photo is of me 30 pounds ago, when I was down from ...

To have the quality of my health and appearance match the quality of my life.

I need to lose this 30 pounds! Up from 20 last year :-(

Find a way to force myself to exercise, more than just walking, which is already an effort!

Improve on the progress I've made towards healthy eating. Make healthier choices, more often.

Get stronger, build muscle and a stronger core.

My Program:
Cook for myself.

Walk everywhere Find the route with the most hills and the most stairs, find the shop that is the farthest way, walk to and from work. Walk. Walk. Walk.

Drink alcohol in moderation at home (less than 5 drinks per week).

Hi Wendy, I just wanted to check in and say "Hi". I see your surgery was scheduled for 4/15. I expect you have some recovery ahead of you, and I hope it's quick for you! I look forward to hearing how you're doing!

Hey! Thank you :)

I agree with you, food, eating, and cooking are some of the best things in life!! That's why the only way I could lose weight was to to do it in a way that I could keep up with for the rest of my life. I just can't handle elimination or deprivation diets, so that's why I be sure to include as many fabulous foods in my menus as possible. Life is too short to eat things you do not enjoy! :)

You have a wonderful and positive plan to do it and I'm sure you'll see the same success if you just enjoy yourself and strive for balance, not perfection. :)

It really IS a game and a fun one at that! Thanks again and I hope to keep in touch.

Jenn
