So so glad it's a new year...2011 was better than 2010...and so 2012 will be even better and greater - I know it's a year of breaking out!!!

I am enjoying getting back to sparking and am doing something every day towards a healthier lifestyle. I am actually enjoying doing some cooking - a REAL accomplishment for me! and I am actually realising that I am a good cook

I am incorporating in more fruit and veg on a regular basis - and working out the logistics of shopping at the market to save some money, and buying fruit and veg for the whole week. I can roast a chicken and make chicken broth in my sleep now.... and I've got a mean lentil and bacon soup recipe memorised.

Exercise not going well yet - still have a major block against the discomfort, and living in a cold, damp, dark climate -- so far walking to public transport has been only exercise...so I will need to begin some strength exercises at home at least. Will report on that in a few days to keep myself honest



I am glad I am managing to recognise all the steps I am taking instead of take the all or nothing approach which I hope to permanently retire since it just doesn't work!
