I am starting an 8 week Healthy Living Challenge with a few Facebook friends. It starts today, and I'm excited because I think it will help me make better choices during this season. I did not add money to the pot, but having the Facebook group as a support will be good for me.
Exercise hasn't been much of a priority since having Av 6 months ago. But I'm ready to make that a part of my routine again. I will do Body Pump on Monday and Wednesday evenings and yoga on Tuesday and Thursday evenings.
I did really well with not eating sweets for a few weeks in October, and I felt so good! I had so much more energy, which, in addition to getting a lot done, also helped me not be so irritable with my family. And yet I can't seem to stay away from the sugary energy-sappers.
Here's the link to the Healthy Living Challenge print out.
Let me know if you're interested and I'll add you to the FB group.

My number doesn't define who or what I am, for good or bad. Changing this number won't make me happier, prettier or smarter. It will only help my jeans fit better.
Welcome!
...to my (attempts at) Healthy Living blog. I debated sharing this blog with the world, because I am not, by any stretch of the imagination, an expert on diet and exercise, nor am I perfect at any of the goals I set for myself. I just keep taking baby steps to do a little better, and invite you to come along!
Goal
A good weight for my height/body type is about 170. I feel comfortable there, too.
But my ultimate goal is health and happiness.

Sounds wonderful. I'm interested!
We weigh almost exactly the same right now. I think I just weighed in at 175.6. That's 50 pounds more than when I got married. Not that I think I ever need to get down to that weight, but back down to 155 or so would be nice. I'm so bummed about my foot right now. I need to pull out my pilates dvd and see if I can do that. It's something, right?
