I was just thinking, which is very scary, on how we all know what we need to do to become healthier. We certainly know the basics anyways, stay away from fatty foods (trans fat), fast food outlets, eat more veggies, exercise body and mind, get enough sleep and so on. We all know the simple rules but we just don't want to follow them. It's strange how that works out and in reality, it really isn't that hard to follow...if it's truly your goal. I think that is the difference for me this time, it is really what I want...to get healthy. I've gone down this road so many times in the past but I have never been this focused on truly changing my lifestyle. If this is your goal...I know you can do the same thing! It's a matter of taking the first step...literally. Get off the couch, throw away the chip bag and go for a walk. You'll be amazed how quickly you can see a difference in yourself and I just don't mean weight. The weight issue is only part of the equation, I also mean inches and also feeling better about yourself in general. Your outlook on tasks and life will change and all for the better! We know the theory behind weight loss, we just need to put the theory into action. A fellow by the name of Friedrich Engels once said..."an ounce of action is worth a ton of theory"...that is very true!

Take that first step!!

I took a minute to review some of my blogs....oh the grammar mistakes! Oh well, as long we're all having fun!

Less than a month to St. Patrick's Day! Well bless me lucky charms! I'll have a few pints on that day for sure.

On Wednesday I went into Bodilogix to get a protein shake for lunch and of course I was greeted by the Sarge. She prepared the normal "wild berry blast" shake and I was about to head out the door. I made a comment about I'm off to fight crime, battle injustices and preserve the Canadian way of life...all true of course. I then said I was going to change into a phone booth. Then...from behind the Bodilogix bar, the voice of the Sarge rang out..."at least you can fit into one now!". I've double booked a therapy session for this week.

Did you know that the worlds strongest beer is "Samuel Adams" Triple Bock, which has 17% alcohol by volume. Apparently they use Champagne yeast to get the alcohol content up! I never thought an American beer would be the winner in this category. Will wonders never cease! Did i happen to mention that St. Patrick's Day is less than a month a way??

Yes, I weighed in this morning. I didn't lose a damn thing! Another zero, that's the second one in the last three weigh-ins! I'll still keep plugging away as I know I'm doing all the right things...as i said earlier, it's not only about the weight.
