Get Healthy/Stay Healthy;Get Fit/Stay Fit

Posted on January 26, 2016

Get Healthy/Stay Healthy and Get Fit/Stay Fit is my new motto. I have to do this for me. I've Yo-Yo'd dieted many times through my life. Up and down again and again.

I know my triggers - stress, anxiety, worry and depression and to be honest I just plain love food.

Right now, I am at my heaviest and I know it is taking a toll on my physical health. Breathlessness and joint pains - not to mention what I can't see - fatty plaques clogging my arteries.

I'm no longer a young chicken, age 56, so all the more reason that now is the time to do this for my health, mental and physical.

I look forward to this challenge and I really know that this challenge is not against others and not even against me, but with myself and for myself. I will be totally honest and will share my struggles and my victories.

Yeah Me (Gotta cheer myself on),

Dawn

Yes, it's more than weight loss. It's finding stability. It's about confronting my needs and feelings when I overeat and eat just because I'm stressed. It's a journey to end or better understand this battle within myself.
