It's Okay to "Begin Again." Again.


It's a few days after Christmas--a Christmas during which not much walking was done, but a lot of eating was--and we're back home, and I'm ready to start...yet again...to become more fit.

I just looked back at my weight loss records from the past 7 years, and I've gained 19 pounds since my low in 2009. I'm 61 years old, retired, and living in the beauty that is Durango, Colorado.

I need to fix things, and so...I begin. Again.

    Yep, have been here forever! Glad to have you back!
    Just signed up for the 5% challenge; part of the Daisies team.
    So far....it's just you & me in McHenry Co. You still in Wodstock? I've since moved to Crystal Lake.

    Oh, Lynn, a great big hello once again and welcome back! I am still teaching, too. Retirement will be probably at the end of next year. I broke my ankle in the spring and my kneecap in November. It's been a hard last few months! I am doing so much physical therapy and water aerobics trying to regain mobility. How great that you have your sisters to follow along with you. Only one of mine is interested and one is still tiny. I hope the other will join in good healthy habits at some point.

    Keep in touch!!
