My Goal to Become a Fit Grandmother
Wow, time goes fast. Last year I wrote "After all these years on Spark People time to update these remarks again.

I have become a bit more social but that has led to more meals out, a little less of the prepare from scratch program, and it shows as I pay just enough attention to maintain but not actively get to goal. I hope to make the last third of the year count and see at least some high 130's on scale. I have used every excuse in the book to rationalize my slow progress, I think the time has come to just do it. I truly do believe in the philosophy of the small goals commitment challenge and the importance of community in this journey.

Fitness Minutes:
255,725
My Goals:
My beginning goals are pretty basic.
1. Drink my water
2. Add 20 min. a day to my usual exercise
3. Journal my food (and feelings)
4. Work on evening eating, I've really allowed it to sabatoge my program
5. Limit refined carbohydrates
My Program:
I have most of the eating principles of Weight Watchers and South Beach (plus a few recent ones from OA) committed to memory. They are often de-railed by emotional eating, occasions when I use food for comfort or entertainment. Addressing the emotional aspect will be as important as the plan of eating.
Personal Information:
Other Information:
My favorite leisure activities are walking, reading, writing and quilting..
