It's Time!

I had made up my mind that there would be no "New Years' Resolutions" for me. I have started and stopped, started and stopped my whole adult life. I have always eaten healthy foods and had great health in general, and my joke was "I'm the healthiest fat person you know!" Well, now I'm beginning to fear for my health. Eating healthy is not enough. I have to start exercising, too. A couple miles on my recumbent bike once a month is not going to be enough, either. I need to get moving, in a BIG way. I haven't decided yet what I'll do, but my "stationary" habits and hobbies have got to change. I'm seriously needing input and motivation. I don't want diabetes or heart disease, or worse, cancer, like my parents had. Today is the day I need to start changing.

  1. Debb, I'm right behind you all the way! I know exactly how you feel about stopping and starting. I plan on always moving forward, even if it seems like baby steps to some it will still be big for me! :0)

    I'm still a bit under the weather but hope by the weekend I will be up and back on the treadmill.

    I look forward to our weekly check-ins! It makes me know I am accountable for what I put in my mouth. And that I exercise!

    My sister also gave me a wonderful diary to use this year. I plan to put it to good use. :0)

    Well, I need to lay back down for awhile. The NyQuil is finally kicking in. :0)
