Why do I want to stay fit?

Fri, 22 Feb 2013 09:56:47 EST

There are several reasons that I want to stay fit.. I have recently lost 25 lbs, looking to lose another 25 by August. Some of the reasons that I want to become fit are pretty simple. I want to continue to enjoy my life, so often I see people that are not participating in life due to poor habits, overeating, drinking and such. I want to be one of those people that continues to have a great life well after retirement. I am not even close to retirement age, however I want to be able to fully pa...

If Weight didn't exist how would you know you are healthy?

Sun, 30 Dec 2012 09:12:38 EST

HHHmm! An excellent question. You know what I HATE is BMI! So at my goal weight I will still be border line overweight??? That's Crazy! Who ever came up with BMI anyway??

If weight didn't exist.... I found out that my recent weight loss was helpful in the current road trip we are on. My husband and I were in a much smaller bed and I slept great!

Why Didn't I think of this before

Wed, 31 Oct 2012 16:06:41 EST

Every year I buy Halloween candy for our household. This year I purchased candy that I do not like. Why have I not thought of this before?!@#

Tonight is a sort of the day where you don't really count those "mini" snickers. By the time you sit down for a dinner~made in your crock pot~ you think gee I am not that hungry b\c I've been snacking all afternoon. I am here to say be careful tonight!! One thing you may consider.. Do not throw away your candy wrappers. Who wants to see a mo...

I love my crock pot!

Fri, 26 Oct 2012 10:30:26 EST

I love finding new recipes for the crock pot! The crock pot was clearly invented by a busy person. One a week I spend 3-4 hours in the kitchen chopping/ prepping item so that we can have nice dinner. The pot also gives us great flexibility when we have activities at night.

The grocery store

Fri, 19 Oct 2012 20:24:35 EST

I HATE going to the grocery store! I hate how many time you need to touch each item. Think about it.. you need to pick it up to place in your cart, empty your cart at check out, put the bags back into your cart, put the bags into your car, take the bags out of your car and then put the items away. 234
