Back on Track - with exercise plan

So as you know from my last post, I lost my email address and password. I let it stress me out beyond belief and guess what I did to cope? Yep, I stuffed my face. Somehow I've got to learn that doing that only harms me and does nothing to help the situation. Does anyone have a technique they've learned to help them control their food problems?

So, today I'm putting my foot down. No more self-sabotaging. Not gonna do it!

I have thought about an exercise plan to get me started towards my goal. In addition to the goal of losing 35lbs, I would also like to be physically fit to ski this winter.

Last year around Christmastime, my husband and I stayed with a friend in Ruidoso, NM to go skiing. I had not been working out at all and had an extremely weak core. I skied maybe 2 hours and I was done. To the truck I went to read my kindle while my athletic husband skied all over the mountain without my company. Major bummer. Fast forward to March. We had worked out using the P90X method going on about 60 days. I skied the entire day. My core was more solid than it was 2.5 months earlier. I only stopped to potty and snack a couple of times, but you couldn't convince me I needed to stop. I had so much fun, I want another full skiing season like I had that one day in March.

Today, I start. No more excuses.

This is what I have planned, but this is not set in stone. I'll have to figure out if it will work. Every morning I will walk the dog for at least 20 minutes to start out. She's as out of shape as I am. Gradually we'll pick it up.

.... we'll see how this goes.

Nutrition wise, I need to work on this daily as well. I'm seeing a Naturopathic Doctor on the 12th so he can figure out why my thyroid levels are so low. Hopefully he'll be able to answer a lot of questions I have and I won't have to get stuck taking a thyroid medication the rest of my life here on earth. That would suck.

So. here's to getting started on a plan that I hope will work. I am determined to try it. I CAN DO IT!

LOST EMAIL AND PASSWORD

Phew!!! It's been a stressful 2 weeks! I forgot to write my email google email address and password down. I just knew I would remember it. Well, I didn't and I lost it.

The last 30 minutes I tried hard core to remember my stuff and viola! I did. Yeah!

I have done horrible in watching what I eat, when I eat, how I eat, and everything else associated with health.

I was just invited to go workout with some friends this evening so I am headed to the gym now.

Thanks for being so patient with me to write another post.

I'll be back soon to get things up to speed.

In Him,

Megan
