WOW - How many days has it been... tooo long... so sorry.. so much going on...
Since I got back from California, it has been a rough go at getting back into the swing of things.. work that is, and it seems the days have just gone by so quick.. I can't believe it.. I also have found it so hard to get back into the swing of things.. I guess it was all the relaxation I took when I was in California.. It was hard to get back on line, to do email, and so on.....
BUT I"M BACK>>>
I just signed up for the challenge that Family circle started this month towards a New Healthy YOU !! no surprise that the challenge is to start walking and increase our steps by 2000 per week.. Well Hello how many times do I need to read that.. But I signed up.. you can too and join me in helping us reach our weigh loss goal.

I did weigh myself on Tuesday and I lost 1 pound.. After last weeks 5 / 1 was so disappointing, but I did do more exercise and funny thing I was reading and article today that stated that the worse thing you can do is exercise one week and then stop the next. Your body has to adjust itself, and before it can start to burn calories again you will have to get back up to the point of steps or whatever it was that you were doing prior to the break. So in my case there I was walking 30 minutes a day, 10000 - 13000 steps a day, and then I stop, my body needs to get back to that in order to do something like burn calories.. So the bad thing I am doing is I am all gun ho one week and then rest the next.... OH boy a big lesson learned..
On the Family Circle challenge they ask you to put a start date on the calender - circle it and start getting excited about the day you are going to start your challenge... self talk... key!!!
So my start day is Monday May 19, 2008...I will be very active for the next 21 days so that it will become a habit.. You have heard of that right that if you do something for 21 days straight it becomes a habit...
So I am off... Hope you sign up for the challenge too...
