Ok so I have been neglectful and I apologize. I am a work in progress. today was suppose to be a rainy day and that’s what I had planned for yet, the sun is out and it is beautiful today.
January has been full of health challenges. Nothing too bad but, something to work on. I went for my annual physical and found I have lost 50lbs in the last 2 years. 10 of those pounds since September. I was unaware even tho I see a difference in my clothes. I have been on a detox all this month. I can attribute my weight loss to my detox process. I did the detox 3 times last year and will probably do it 3 or 4 times this year. The bi product of the detox is my eating habits have drastically changed. I am more aware of what I am eating, what I should be eating, how much I am eating, when I am eating and when I should not be eating. I am not very creative when it comes to recipes but I have been forced to give it a try. Truly a work in progress. the only recipes I have found that I like is a Coconut Tequila Lime Pie – NOT good for the weight loss BUT, a GREAT recipe. I made it 4 times between Thanksgiving and Christmas. LAWD, it’s good. And easy to make, too. I have been off most sweets all month and I am feening real bad for some California Brittle from Sees Candies. HELP! Anyway, I will get 2 pieces for Valentines Day. I am not diabetic and don’t want to be. I have been borderline for Y E A R S. I have GOT to pay attention. My husband thinks fruit sugars are harmless because it’s natural. W R O N G !!! Sugar is sugar. the body does not care. that’s bad news because I love fruit. And anytime I have sugar, I want more sugar. Fruit will fool you if you are not paying attention.
YOU CANNOT BE WEAK TO GROW OLD.!!! Talk about challenges. I start back to physical therapy next month. Last year I discovered I had mini tears in a tendon from my arch, up around the backside of my ankle and up the leg. I wore a boot until December. I have taken the boot off but, I am restricted to what shoes I can wear. In the meantime the domino affect has happened. My knee and hip are aggravated. So, I pray physical therapy will get me back on track.
Let me know how your New Year is starting off. What are your challenges? My goal is to loose another 50lbs and put exercise in my life.
Later,
