Heard this on a podcast this morning as I was driving and I had to ask Siri to make a note of it as it really struck me and what I want to identify with on my health journey.

Ug. I believe I did WAAAAY better in January at exercizing than I am in February. 
Oh well, I will keep moving forward.
On another note, I just learned, after all these years, about Bookmarks on here. I can bookmark a post, add a title and tags and find it easy! Who knew! Not me, apparently! LOL

2022 Healthy Living
Hi all, I've found it helpful over the years to be accountable to others if I want to achieve a goal. One of my goals for 2022 is to do daily exercise. I've been doing it for the most part. But life happens and sometimes you get off course. Let's cheer each other on towards a Healthy 2022...

2022 Healthy Living
My kids aren't gone yet, but we had one last big dinner last night planned out, so that was it for me. Today was the day I finally put the holiday food fest behind me and move on. It was fun while it lasted, but I'm ready to loose the couple pounds I've gained and set a new goal. I"m just not...

Yesterday, on our farm walk, we started to go just a bit more. So, I'm going say we did 1 1/4 mile! I also found at Aldi's padded socks and wore a pair of shoes that were more hiking tread and so my feet didn't hurt afterwords.

Thank you, Annie! I have always been impressed with how he keeps himself in shape. I always tend to look at those in shape folks as not having to work at it. Being healthy is work.
It so hard to get back into a routine once something interferes …. I had a bit of a cold and then two weeks later I went down for me time with my dad and step ma. Just got back Tuesday night. I don’t feel like doing my exercise videos …. And it’s been raining yesterday and today so no walking outside. Oh well …. I will find some motivation I suppose. Or not. LOL

I was feeling the same way after returning from Cincinnati. Monday my brain was everywhere and I had to be out of the house before 9:00 am. Tuesday, I said enough and just did it. No excuses. I am back at it. Once my body remembered how good it felt after the exercise there was no turning back. I have another trip planned for April and I hope to do the exercises while there. May have to go to the basement but I will find a way.It so hard to get back into a routine once something interferes ….

Jody ~ That's the spirit! I sometimes need to just take the first step, giving myself permission to stop at a given period. I hardly ever do stop.
Motivational mottos that seem to work well for me: Nike's "Just Do It";"A body in motion stays in motion."; "The first step is the hardest step."

I like the saying 'to rest is to rust' but haven't done a thing with grandkids here all week... ah well... I did 15 minutes this morning.
I think moving and shaking with the grandkids would burn some calories!!
Lucie ~ That's a good one saying!
I did a short workout this morning that I found on YouTube.
(109) 30 MIN CARDIO LATIN DANCE Workout with MOM! • 4000 Steps • Walking Workout #39 • Keoni Tamayo - YouTube
I discovered a smile on my face doing this one. It was actually fun!

This one hit home for me yesterday after spending a week doubting myself again. Patience is the key!!

Although I've been posting weekly reviews, I just thought I'd post something mid-week for my personal incentive. I've been taking a serious approach to my diet this week, which means only 1-1/2 days so far. I'm trying to get myself back on track to resist those foods that I know will (and have) sabotage my weight. I have an afternoon snack attack which can involve cheese, nuts and sweets (primarily chocolate). So far, so good in resisting those this week. If I put out carrots, celery, cherry tomatoes, broccoli, etc. to munch on. It really helps. They have to be on the counter and easy to grab.
