Because Getting Healthy is HALF the battle!
This blog is all about my journey from fat to ... well, who knows?
I'll tell you about my good days, bad days and everything in between.

Gettin' the job done. Slowly.
I walked another 5K this weekend and while it was cold and very windy I did it. And I did it four minutes faster than I did last weekend! I was amazed that I'd completed it any faster than last weekend because at some points I had such a strong headwind that I felt like I had stopped walking. Lucky for me I had a 60 pound yellow lab to keep me going! Now if only the weather would improve because while I will walk when it's cold I will not walk outside when it is raining.
The meeting topic this week was all about tracking, which I do pretty religiously. I use tracking to remind me what I've eaten. In the past I have eaten things and then completely forgotten what I ate or how much and just out of habit or boredom I will eat something else. Over time, clearly, this adds up. So I use the eTools and iPhone app to track what I eat and how much activity I get. Plus I know that when I have a bad week I know I can look back at the good weeks and find out what I did and where I need to improve.
So what do you do to keep yourself on track?
What do you do to motivate yourself when mother nature isn't cooperating?
