"Have you worked out lately?"

Hello and I hope you are all doing well. I hope that this post finds you well and ready for "Thanksgiving" this week. Well, with that being said, you know what they all say about this time of year. How much weight are we supposed to gain this time of year? Is is ten pounds? Well, whatever. Now is a good time of year to get into that exercise program that you know you need to do but don't have the time. Well, I am here to tell you that you do have the time. You just need to make the time for it. Ok, here's the deal. Many years ago I was very disciplined and worked out at a gym and to videos 5 to 7 days a week after I had my son. I had those abs everyone dreamed about and I looked good. Now many years later after having my daughter I'm going to get back into the program. I don't have a lot of time nor at this time do I want to pay for a gym membership. So here's what I do. That video tape I worked out to years ago. Well, I still have it.

"Sugar tastes good, but not good for you."

Hope you are all doing well. I am sitting here Ridgecrest, California and it is pouring down rain. I doesn't rain that much here. So I am glad that it is. We need it. With Halloween having been yesterday I thought it would be appropriate to talk about "Sugar". I'm sure you know as we've all been told that too much is not good for you. We never really understood but knew deep down inside. As for myself I have cut down on sugar bigtime. I have to admit that I had a few pieces of candy last night and I felt like "yuck". That's what happens when we change our diet and take care of ourselves. We don't really notice things, we think it's normal...Then we change our diet, start eating healthier and doing healthier things, (just like what this website is for) and then we start noticing little subtle things. That's how our body works. That's why I am so adamant about doing those little things....They really do matter, even if it

Today is "Emotional Health Day".

Hello Everyone, I hope you all are doing well. While I was going through some boxes I found this folded piece of paper with a poem or what ever you call it and I wanted to share it with you. I think I copied this off of a poster when I was a teenager. That was many years ago and as I look back it amazes me as to the things that mattered to me at that time.....So here ya go... I hope you enjoy.... Kristy I am me In all the world there is no one else exactly like me. Everything that comes out of me is authentically mine because I alone chose it – I own everything about me, my body, my feelings, my mouth, my voice, all my actions, whether they be to others or to myself – I own my fantasies, my dreams, my hopes, my fears – I own all my triumphs and me, I can become intimately acquainted with me – By so doing I can love me and be friendly with me in all of my parts – I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me, and other that I do not know – But as long as I am friendly

What do we do when we are feeling down?

So, you're feeling down. It has not been one of your better days. You don't really feel like doing much. As a matter of fact, you don't want to do a thing. Well I am here to tell you that this is the time to do something nice for yourself. I know that when I am down I have two choices to make. I can do something destructive or something constructive.....So when I'm having a bad day I do something that will be good for me... So for instance....I might make a healthy smoothie, take some extra vitamins, just go for a walk and/or read a good book. Devotional reading and prayer can do wonders. So when you are having a bad day.....Do something nice for yourself. Signing out and I will see you next time.
