Health Goals

I must must MUST lose some weight! My back and feet say so! I have been more active the past week (cleaning, helping Mom with stuff, cooking for the holidays, etc.) and I feel it in all my joints and muscles. I hardly sit down anymore, so maybe that weight will start coming off soon. I am going to the grocery store tomorrow for healthy food. We got a little off track with our eating goals due to Thanksgiving and leftovers. But it's time to really focus on good health habits. I threatened Douglas not to bring home junk food. Mom asked me to buy her some ice cream but I told her no. She didn't like that. It's for her own good, though. Not only did she just have triple bypass, she's also diabetic. So no. No ice cream. I have my own addictions to deal with too. Like sodas. I dread the detox from them but it has to be done. It won't be pretty for a few days. I'm really determined to stick with a healthy diet this time. I'm ready for the hard work.

I had to start eating low carb when I found out I was diabetic 3 years ago. It's not easy but it is healthier.

I lost 30 lb eating low carb, but I started stress eating again and invited all the carby foods back in. I bought mainly low carb stuff today. Slowly getting the junk out of my system again.
