Introduction Text Time for Winter Fun ... It's time for slowing down, vacations, and birthdays and holidays here. Time for gathering family around bonfires or big pots of Soup. The beaches here are quieter, with just the waves and gulls, not out-of-towners. The snow might come any time now, you can see the dogs' eager anticipation. But we still might have quite a few days left, where just a cozy sweater is comfort enough out for the day. "Know thyself, or at least keep renewing the acquaintance.” — Robert Breault My name is Diane. Proud Clover and Dragon. I have 30 pounds to lose to feel good in my clothes; improve my muscle tone; and control my blood pressure and cholesterol. My advice: Stop surrounding yourself with people who don’t support you. You’re the average of the five people you spend the most time with. Choose wisely! .................................. Attitudes of a Warrior I am a warrior... I act in spite of fear. I am a warrior... I am willing to do whatever it takes. I am a warrior... I do everything at 100%. I am a warrior... I am willing to do what's "hard." I am a warrior... I act in spite of my mood. I am a warrior... I am bigger than any obstacle. I am a warrior... I succeed in spite of anything. I am a warrior... I never give up! .................................

HERE ARE MY WINTER CHALLENGE COMMITMENTS: 1- Limit Sugar, Sodium, Cholesterol - TRACK IT ALL 2- 60+ EXERCISE MINUTES PER DAY (Don't be afraid to let it be 10 mins at a time!) 3- 8+ GLASSES OF WATER OR GREEN TEA PER DAY 4- 1/2 Plate of Veggies every Meal No Excuses - Making excuses burns ZERO Calories per hour.

Meal Planning and Sticking to it. Thursday - Weekly Meal Plan Friday - Grocery List/Shopping Sat/Sun - Batch Cooking helps. Exercise - I am struggling to find a good program, would love to find a consistent trainer I like, but I have some good "go to" work-outs and videos. Weekly Weigh Ins I am still out of town about 70% of my work days. I pack my meals to bring and use the hotel gym while I'm away.

I love the beach, fishing, & gardening. I'm married to my dear husband 32 years. And we enjoy volunteering as Sunday School teachers and VBS Leaders for our church. We have a daughter, son-in-law, and cutest 8 year-old grandson ever ;-) And love animals, too! One dog, Freddy; 3 cats: Marie, KC, and Kitty; and a very friendly turtle, Lucky. I work as an IT Project Manager and am often out of town for work days at a time. I do my best to plan meals and workouts that still fit into my overall plan.
