Happiness is being fit enough to spend 6 hours on dance lessons and dancing Saturday night and four hours digging up weeds at a county park the day after. I don't think I could've done it this time last year.

Thank you.

Seriously, all I've been doing is walking on my breaks at work. Two 15 minute miles a day. The walking will suck for about a week or two and then it'll feel good and you'll be cranky when you miss it.

Yeah, I hear you. I felt really exhausted yesterday after our evening walk, and today's morning walk hasn't helped wake me up. But I know it will get better.

Thanks for the encouragement. We both need to get back in shape so we can do the things we love again now that we have time to do them!

What I need to do is go on a more disciplined eating regimen for a few weeks and see if I can kick start my metabolism again. I dumped 30 pounds last summer, kept most of it off and it's time to see if I can shave off a couple more.

Yes, me too. I started a better eating plan today. I've been eating really badly lately because I've been working too hard to care. But I feel like crap and I even got a cold (which is something I rarely get).

Hopefully walking and eating right will help.

It should. Be sure to take shameless advantage of your fresh produce seasons too. I told myself I could have all the fruit and veggies I could hold last summer. I was going through grapes and cherries like there was no tomorrow.
