Continue to PRESS FORWARD

I am hungry today. I want to eat. I Just got off the treadclimber. 25 mins plus I increased the incline alittle. I was sweating the entire time and it felt great. I did the treadclimber yesterday for 25 mins. Then I went for about a 2.5 mile walk with my friend. I am just so grateful that I am becoming able to do more things. I could walk last night, my knee was good, I wasn't winded and it was a pleasant experience instead of something I had to do. I am hungrier the past couple of days, I have done pretty good point wise. I try to just stay within my points, I don't use activity points. I have been eating at home more, and this is saving me money. Good for me!

Emotionally I am feeling better too. I have had a deep feeling of gratiute the past couple of days. That makes or breaks how I feel on any given day. AM I GREATEFUL? I am more likely to treat my body well when I am grateful for it. I am more likely to enjoy my job, when I am grateful for it. I don't have any big plans. My church as a worldwide conference this weekend, so I will be listening to that. I am going to keep up on my water, walking, and food over the weekend. I am going back to the bird park with my friend in the morning. Plus my grandson's football game.

enjoy your weekend everyone

    You may be hungrier with the increased activity. Your metabolism is most likely up there and asking for a snack. You may need to break up your meals a little more to leave some calories to play around with for extra snacks ;) A GOOD thing ;) I am feeling grateful today too!

    Have a fun Friday!

    I have times when I am hungrier than other also. Just keep your focus and work through it!

    You are doign this and you are already seeing the results (better mobility and such)!

    Eating at home. Now don't get me wrong, I love love love to eat out. But really, eating at home is the way to go, especially when you are health concscious. Eating at home, I have complete control of what I'm eating, my portion sizes, what goes into the food I'm preparing, etc etc etc. At a restaurant, sometimes it's a crap shot!

Contentment at last

Oh my goodness!!  I can't beleive how long it's been since I haave posted here.  So maybe things have changed.  The month I moved in with my son and daughter in law, a friend from high school asked if I wanted to be a "Granny Nanny" for her 86 year old mother.  It would mean moving back to my home town and living with the woman.  I didn't hesitate.  I had a good feeling about it from the start, so I went for it.  So, as of the first of October I have been residing in a cozy little home in Orem, UT.  The woman is just a sweetheart.  So easy to please and I feel so comfortable.  The pay is great too.  I like living with someone and it has just been a win/win.  I love my surroundings.  I love the mountains, the memories, being around my extended family.  My sister lives here, as does my aunt, a ton of cousins on both sides of the family.  Of course the downside is I am away from my kids and my grandkids.  I m...

A Traditionally Built Woman

I am listening to the latest No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency books. Blue Shoes and Happiness. They are sweet simple stories about a woman in Botswana Africa. She is a "traditionally built" woman. This means of course that she is heavy. I have never seen the show on HBO, but I love the books. In this book she decides to go on a diet. All her litle "insights" about going on a diet are cute....and so true. My favorite is how it's human nature that when you decide to restict ANYTHING you always end up wanting more of it. How she thought that was funny, until she herself was on a diet, now not so funny. How she gets crabby when she's hungry. I could so relate and it made me smile. People, we are more alike then we are different. The book is written by a white man, which I think is great. See, more alike then we are different. I have my grandkids birthday party today. My daughter, "C," is doing 2 kids in one party. They are still young enough that they don...
