And one for the road...

I am doing tomorrow one of the things that has caused me to slip up in the past. It is traveling. Why not stop at Shoney's there is not one back home, what about a Sonic? Or the Hardee's? Those places have food that I have not had in ages. I am traveling with protein drinks, a turkey sandwich, and zero cal energy drinks. I had the last meal kinda, I have not been eating healthy recently, you can get lots of unhealthy food for the price of one healthy meal somewhere. I need to start cooking more. Fortunately, I have people that want to work out with me and want to do things that are not involving my butt in a chair.

In 12 hours I will be in Tennessee, I hope.

happiness is a mindset?

I know this sounds like a new age thought or some kind of psycho babble. I know that when I am internally happy, I lose weight. It practically falls at my feet. I am down about 3 lbs now, which does not seem like much. I am happy with myself, and I am losing weight to be healthy, not to look pretty for someone, or to be like the skinny models. My family has a history of heart disease, and health problems, so I am doing this to help with my longevity.

The point of this is that today, I was told by two different people today that I am always happy, no matter what seems to be happening to me. One told me that he always feels better after talking to me; another asked if I ever have problems in my life. I like hearing these things it keeps me focused on my spiritual beliefs, and focused on the task at hand.

Again thanks for reading

Thai Food and The beginning working out

So there are several things that are great in this world and Thai food is wonderful. That and it can be prepared very healthy. There is a little place nearby that not only has great food, and the people there like us.

Aside from that, there is the beginning of working out again. The starting to gain more wind, the enjoyment of just being working out to your own pace. It is a wonderful feeling, though. Pace is very important, I know the pace that I was able to do, and I have to remember that I cannot start at that pace again.

I start Yoga soon, I am looking forward to that, and I have people that wish to do it with me, I may not lose a lot of weight up front, though I have won by those who wish to spend the time with me.

I would call it day one...

I would call this day one. It is not, it is another day in a long string of days that have lead me to this point. My name sake comes from my beliefs is spirituality and my beliefs in working out, yet I feel like I have done neither recently. I was talked into working this blog, though I think that it might be a helpful tool, tracking what I have done and accomplished. Here is to hoping...

There is research that in order to change a behavior, you need 21 days of straight commitment. Tomorrow is be a new day one.

Testing Please

Testing... Here you go, darling. Hope you like it!
