Introduction Text There's really no secret to it is there? lol We all know what to do, it's just the doing that creates the issues. ;-) I really appreciate the support I've gotten from my Spark Friends over the years, so now it's my turn to help and support in any way I can as we continue this journey together. I claim this year! This is my year to get healthy and fit! Who's with me?

I've yo-yo'd for years now and so over the emotional roller coaster that goes along with that. I've learned a lot of lessons over the years and I now know that moderation is the key. No more crazy fad diets, excessive exercise or anything unhealthy. My goal this year is to be kind to myself and slowly but steadily get to my goal weight of 140-145 lbs. I'm 5'5" - I think that's just the right weight range to be fit and healthy but not skinny which is what I plan to be within the next year so that by the time I'm 60 yrs old, I can travel and explore without having to sit anything out because I'm not fit enough to do it.

Being kind to myself, but not making excuses either! Getting some sort of exercise in every day but Sunday, my day of rest. Walking, strength training, body weight exercises, dancing, yoga and hopefully some swimming if I can find a good place, will be a part of my life from now on. Eating delicious and nutritious food most of the time with a treat every now and then being careful to track even when I get off track. lol Keeping an eye on the scale but not beating myself up if I don't like what I see. This is a journey with all of the twists and turns that entails. I'm ready!

Day job - Number Cruncher Passion - Writing Proud Mom - One Son Determined to get fit and healthy! I believe that getting fit and healthy is 90% diet and 10% exercise!

Writer, lover of books, movies, stories of all sorts, but especially enjoy reading and writing historical fiction, science fiction and fantasy. Renaissance Faires fascinate me. Who doesn't love a good joust? Horses and knights in shining armor all at once! Sigh.
