My plans were to blog on Mondays and that did not happen. Life has a tendency to get in the way. In the of January I lost 9.8 pounds and gained a little back. Now I'm back town. I've started to follow the DASH diet and I no longer need to count calories, but I count servings in the food groups. That is soooooo much easier. I've added exercise back in, but the little girl I care of (IM) was sick so some of that got on hold. Then I got sick. I did not like that, but I did lose weight.

I'm finding that my biggest thing is balancing eating with exercise. I'm not too concerned about how much I should weigh as how healthy I am. I will accomplish what I can and trust the Heavenly with the rest.
