Down Home in Indiana
"The journey begins with one step....ya know, it took me a long time to move from thinking about losing weight and wishing it would just start to disappear to actually taking responsibility for putting it on and for getting it off. I want to be healthy and fit, stronger with endurance. I want to see if I can get my BP down by exercising and losing weight. I want to accomplish this for me and for those I love and who love me."
These words are true for me, even now as I write again years ...

These words are true for me, even now as I write again years later. I've regained a chunk of the weight I lost during previous BLC sessions and it's time to stop talking and start doing the work of taking care of myself. It starts NOW. 1/2/2019

My Goals:
My goal is to help myself be as healthy as I can be so I can enjoy my life to the fullest. I want to stay active and engaged in life!
My Program:
Eating more veggies and fruits, healthy proteins and fats and very little gluten and sugar as these seems to inflame my arthritis.
Exercise is a key element to losing weight and maintaining once I reach my goal weight, as well as for the arthritis. Movement is healing.
Personal Information:
I'm from northern Indiana and working full time. I have 2 children and 5 beautiful grandchildren who live too far away. I belong to the "over 65" crowd and I'm loving it!
Other Information:
"Integrity" is my word for life. I like the wholeness and completeness of the word and the intent to allow the pieces that I've scattered to return home, to the center of who I am and always have been.
